2008 Education Conference DVD
The Association for Behavior Analysis International is pleased to offer the 2008 Education Conference: Evidence-Based Practice, Scientifically Based Instruction, and Educational Effectiveness DVD/Webcast package. This two-day conference included presentations on evidence-based education focusing on research and applied issues. This DVD/Webcast will address the current state of knowledge of evidence-based practices at the policy, evaluation, and practice levels. In addition, the DVD/Webcast will examine critical issues including the difficulty of defining “evidence,” current findings and gaps in educational effectiveness research, and the complexity involved in the design and implementation of effective programs. Leading federal representatives, researchers, and educators will describe the status of research methodology in validating interventions, sources of evidence, and what to do in the absence of validated practices. The program will look at the role funding and advocacy play in advancing the agenda of the evidence-based education movement for researchers and educators. Educators (public and private, school-age and higher education), researchers, program developers, and education decision makers will benefit from this important event. The speakers and presentation titles of the 2008 Education Conference are as follows:
