Facilitating the sharing of evidence about the potential academic and non-academic student and teacher outcomes and impacts of blended learning implementation

In order for what we know to benefit students, we must share and consume knowledge about how implementation might affect student outcomes, both academic and non-academic, as well as teacher outcomes, in multiple forms and fora.

Bridging the evidence and implementation cycles requires instructional practices to align with instructional goals and thus have the potential to meet implementation objectives..

All stakeholders should disseminate, share, and seek out findings faster and in new ways. They also need to improve communication and develop a shared language so they can share understanding of which practices are supported by evidence. If the two cycles are connected, we can create spaces for conducting studies and sharing findings openly without fear of being labeled “failures.”

Researcher Does

• Shares more transparently and broadly than usual. All stakeholders benefit when both positive and negative evidence is shared accurately across different audiences.
