Framework for Action
Dr. Ross Todd (CISSL/Rutgers University) has described three types of EBP as a holistic Framework for Action:
-
Evidence FOR practice, or the research that supports best practice.
-
Evidence IN practice, or the expertise of librarians as they define and refine their practice.
-
Evidence OF practice, or the evidence generated by practice showing its impact on students' learning outcomes.
Framework: Holistic Model of Evidence-Based Pracrice for School Libraries (Todd, 2008)
Using the Framework for Action: Collaborative Group Work
-
Co-create an EBP Framework for Action focused on INSTRUCTION for Information Literacy/21st Century Skills.
-
Collaborative group document: Group 1 (ES) Group 2 (ES) Group 3 (ES) Group 4 (ES) Group 5 (Secondary)
-
Ideas generated by groups will be aggregated on a single document and a link posted here, so that all participants may use it as a reference and add new ideas.
-
LMS may use this blank EBP Framework for Action organizer to plan evidence-based practice for another major impact area from the research (reading, collaboration, professional development).
