Title: Evidence-Based Improvement: A Guide for States to Strengthen Their Frameworks and Supports Aligned to the Evidence Requirements of ESSA
Description: This guide, focused on ESSA's provisions related to evidence-based school improvement, builds on the nonregulatory guidance issued in September 2016 by the U.S. Department of Education (ED) that clarifies and expands on both the nature of evidence-based improvement and the levels of evidence that are specified in the law and provides an initial set of tools to help states and districts understand and plan for implementing evidence-based improvement strategies. It provides six tools to help states and school districts understand and plan for implementing evidence-based improvement strategies.
