Research-based INSTRUCTION aligned to STANDARDS
The Learning Bridges Aligned Instructional Database (PATENT
PENDING) underpins the Learning Bridges Decision Tools. Grounded in the research
of Dr. Robert Marzano’s “Theory Based Meta-analysis of Research on Instruction”
(McREL 1998), the Learning Bridges researchers...
IDENTIFIED the most effective teaching practices
(drawn from 32,000+ research studies)
ALIGNED the teaching practices to the grade level
standards (of 49 states) based on 2 criteria:
- The type of knowledge of the grade level standards (e.g., declarative, procedural,
or both).
- The type of brain processing required for learning specific knowledge (e.g., information
processing, knowledge utilization, storage/retrieval, etc.
RANKED the teaching practices based on their Impact
on Learning (based on Effect Size data from research).
Criteria for Inclusion:
For a strategy to be included into the database, it had to have an
Effect Size from research of at least .40 or make at least 20 percentile point gains in achievement.
