The Evidence Advocacy Center (EAC) envisions an education system that values evidence in educator preparation programs, in in-service education, in continuing education, and in the work that goes on within the school and the classroom. To achieve this, evidence-based licensure, accreditation, continuing education, and accountability are needed to permanently transform education into an adequately funded and supported evidence-based profession.

"Research-based" is a term often used to bolster one's claims to show that something works. Yet, what seems like it works in the classroom may fizzle out when it comes to actual outcomes when a student is assessed on their learning. Something that seems engaging, may not actually lead to learning for all students. Many popular books and ideas laud bold, and seemingly credible claims touting boosted student engagement, learning and achievement. Benjamin Solomon, PhD recently created a helpful tool that aids educators in deciphering the claims. Check out the Five Red Flags for Education Research (Group Design), which is linked here.
