@palan57 @rpondiscio Apologies re-read. Fidelity is acheivable but NOT desirable, now I get your point. For example They may use new technology to ensure fidelity or dictate curricular choices and script lessons to deal with pesky teachers. Got your point now.

@rpondiscio ASCD and Learning Forward, basically publishing and conference businesses, are the go to choice for educational leaders and teachers not the research conferences organized in a discipline.

@rpondiscio Though think tanks like and others that can spit out shiny white papers that self cite a small select of research until it becomes true. Plus educational intermediaries play an important role in screwing up how research gets translated into classroom.

@rpondiscio That and we are already spending hundreds of millions on either insignificant findings or studies that can not replicated or scaled. Why not focus on getting those dollars into communities rather than just the fringe and salary of very well paid faculty

@palan57 @rpondiscio In some well defined domains (math) or low hanging fruit research (surprise phonics interventions raise phonics scores) fidelity is easier. It is why you see intervention studies in younger students and only corollary studies with adolescents. Academic survival.

@palan57 @rpondiscio Would rethink how we do educational research aput more of a focus on formative design community/school based research. Scale up things like #GearUpworks, focus on dual enrollment, high school credit for out of school as well Take advantage uplift local community not just study

@The74 @JHeubusch @ronaldreagan40 But I believe this to be a fallacy. We never had the best education system nor ever enjoyed the top spot on international assessments. Instead we built a nation where the best and brightest always wanted to believe. Very unequal nation. There we agree have educational problems

@palan57 @rpondiscio Really didn't expect that from you. Show me large scale national scale up interventions that work. I have never found one. Fidelity is so tough in educational research because it is full of nuisance variables, like teachers and students.
