EEF ESRC Technology Enhanced Learning Academic Impact Placement

点击翻译按钮获取中文摘要

I will investigate ways to ensure that existing and future evidence, produced by both the Education Endowment Foundation and external partners, achieves the maximum possible impact in the shortest possible time. The work takes as its starting point the view that "passive dissemination" of research results will rarely be sufficient to have an impact in schools. I will investigate more effective ways to improve the impact and uptake of educational technology in the classroom, such as supporting dialogue and interactions between research users, producers and intermediaries. I will examine existing evidence-based technologies which have and have not been successfully scaled up, in order to identify the key levers for achieving impact at a national level. The work will directly inform the scale up and dissemination of projects from EEF's dedicated digital technology funding round.
