Build education
policies and practice on
evidence or… what?
83% of all statistics are
made up on the spot
“Without data, you are just
another person with an opinion”

Professional Standards for Teachers
Standard 1.2 Teachers should “demonstrate knowledge and understanding of research into how students learn and the implications for teaching”,
Standard 6.2 • Highly accomplished teachers “plan for
professional learning by accessing and critiquing relevant research”
• Lead stage teachers “engage in research”, and implement professional dialogue that is informed by “analysis of current research”

What is Evidence-Based Practice?
From medicine“the conscientious, explicit and judicious use of current best evidence in making decisions about the care of the individual patient.
It means integrating individual clinical expertise with the best available external clinical evidence from systematic research”.
(Sackett et al, 1996)

Research is not perfect
• Conflicting research• Unbelievable research• Dubious research• Unintelligible research• Research not relevant to our context• Research that leaves more questions
But it's better than the alternative

Critical literacy
• Validity - can you trust it?• Impact - are the results important?• Applicability - does it apply to your student?• Who wrote this?• Who funded this?• How was the evidence arrived at?• Is the research able to be replicated?• Is the evidence applicable to other contexts?• What questions do you have for the
researcher?
