Implementing evidence based practices inevitably leads to new questions and needs, such as requiring new measures or new uses for existing measures, which become the focus of new measurement work.
Implementing evidence-based practices inevitably leads to new questions (such as problems of practice that represent gaps in the existing evidence base) and needs (like wanting to measure new constructs), which become the focus of new measurement work.
Exemplars of competency-based transcripts and grading which can be used when transitioning to a competency/mastery/proficiency based system.
New competencies that are required for evidence-based practices to be implemented in blended learning include the ability to understand which measures are valid and reliable for answering the specific measurement questions of interest.
New competencies that are required for evidence-based practices to be implemented in blended learning include the ability to contextualize all results through the use of comparison groups, which do not always need to be randomized.
New competencies that are required for evidence-based practices to be implemented in blended learning include the ability to capitalize on existing data where relevant and appropriate in order to measure local implementation.
Implementing evidence-based blended learning practices requires competence in ensuring measurement activities are meeting the needs of implementation and understanding which measures are valid and reliable for answering the specific questions of interest.
