1 Interplay Between Evidence-Based Early Literacy Practices and Adult Learning Practices Carl J. Dunst, Ph.D. Carol M. Trivette, Ph.D. Orelena Hawks Puckett Institute Asheville and Morganton, North Carolina Presentation made at the Division for Early Childhood 25 th Annual International Conference on Young Children with Special Needs and Their Families, Albuquerque, NM, October 16, 2009

2 This project is supported in part by a grant from the Department of Education, Office of Special Education (H326B060010).

3 Purpose of the Presentation Describe a practice-based translational approach to conducting research syntheses Illustrate the approach using a synthesis of both early literacy learning practices and adult learning methods and strategies Illustrate how the findings from the synthesis were used to develop evidence-based intervention and implementation practices

4 Two Types of Evidence-Based Practices Evidence-Based Intervention practices Early literacy learning practices Evidence-Based Implementation Practices Adult learning methods

5 Relationship Between Implementation and Intervention Practices

6 Types of Research Syntheses Efficacy Syntheses Efficiency Syntheses Translational Syntheses

7 Purpose of Efficacy Syntheses Ascertain the size of effect for an intervention (treatment, practice, etc.) comparing the outcome against a nonintervention group. Efficacy syntheses combine findings from different studies using randomized controlled trials or similar types of research designs.

8 Purpose of Efficiency Syntheses Ascertain the size of effect for the difference between two or more contrasting interventions (treatments, practices, etc.) Efficiency syntheses focus on which types of interventions under which conditions are associated with the largest effect size on outcomes of interest.

9 Purpose of Translational Syntheses Ascertain the size of effect for the characteristics and features of an intervention (treatments, practices, etc.) that are associated with study outcomes. Translational syntheses focus on unpacking and unbundling an intervention to isolate those practice characteristics that “matter most” in terms of explaining the results found in different studies of the same or similar interventions.

10 Adult Learning Research Syntheses a Research synthesis of 79 studies of accelerated learning, coaching, guided design, and just-in-time-training 58 randomized control design studies and 21 comparison group studies 3,152 experimental group participants and 2,988 control or comparison group participants Combination of studies in college and noncollege settings Learner outcomes included learner knowledge, skills, attitudes, and self-efficacy beliefs Weighted average Cohen’s d effect sizes for the post test differences between the intervention and nonintervention or comparison groups were used for assessing the impact of the adult learning methods. a Trivette, C.M. et al. (2009). Characteristics and consequences of adult learning methods and strategies. Winterberry Research Syntheses, Vol. 2, Number 1.

11 Six Characteristics Identified in How People Learn a Were Used to Code and Evaluate the Adult Learning Methods Planning Introduce Engage the learner in a preview of the material, knowledge or practice that is the focus of instruction or training Illustrate Demonstrate or illustrate the use or applicability of the material, knowledge or practice for the learner Application Practice Engage the learner in the use of the material, knowledge or practice Evaluate Engage the learner in a process of evaluating the consequence or outcome of the application of the material, knowledge or practice Deep Understanding Reflection Engage the learner in self-assessment of his or her acquisition of knowledge and skills as a basis for identifying “next steps” in the learning process Mastery Engage the learner in a process of assessing his or her experience in the context of some conceptual or practical model or framework, or some external set of standards or criteria a Donovan, M. et al. (Eds.) (1999). How people learn. Washington, DC: National Academy Press.

12 Efficacy of the Adult Learning Methods Effect size for the intervention vs. nonintervention group comparisons is d =.56 (95% Confidence Interval =.41 to.71).

13 Efficiency of the Four Adult Learning Methods

14 Translational Findings Process for unpacking and unbundling the key characteristics of the adult learning methods

15 Effect Sizes for the Six Adult Learning Characteristics

16 Practices Number Mean Effect Size (d) 95% Confidence Interval Studies Effect Sizes Pre-class exercises Out of class activities/self-instruction Classroom/workshop lectures Dramatic readings Imagery Dramatic readings/imagery Effect Sizes for Introducing Information to Learners

17 Practices Number Mean Effect Size (d) 95% Confidence Interval Studies Effect Sizes Using learner input for illustration Role playing/simulations Real life example/real life + role playing Instructional video Effect Sizes for Illustrating/Demonstrating Learning Topic

18 Practices Number Mean Effect Size (d) 95% Confidence Interval StudiesEffect Sizes Real life application + role playing Problem solving tasks Real life application Learning games/writing exercises Role playing (skits, plays) Effect Sizes for Learner Application

19 Practices Number Mean Effect Size (d) 95% Confidence Interval StudiesEffect Sizes Assess strengths/weaknesses Review experience/make changes Effect Sizes for Learner Evaluation

20 Practices Number Mean Effect Size (d) 95% Confidence Interval StudiesEffect Sizes Performance improvement Journaling/behavior suggestion Group discussion about feedback Effect Sizes for Learner Reflection

21 Practices Number Mean Effect Size (d) 95% Confidence Interval StudiesEffect Sizes Standards-based assessment Self-assessment Effect Sizes for Self-Assessment of Learner Mastery

22 Cumulative Effects of the Adult Learning Characteristics

23 Additional Translational Synthesis Findings The smaller the number of persons participating in a training (<20), the larger the effect sizes for the study outcomes. The more hours of training over an extended number of sessions, the better the study outcomes. The practices are similarly effective when used in different settings with different types of learners.

24 Infant and Toddler Mark Making and Scribbling Synthesis a Research synthesis of 49 samples of infants and toddlers 9 to 42 months of age Mostly comparative conditions studies or developmental studies of the emergence of drawing behavior human infants and toddler and three studies of nonhuman primates Focus of analysis was the age-related changes in drawing and the conditions under which drawing was optimized Cohen’s d effect sizes were used as the metric for assessing the influences of different types of drawing activities on child behavior a Dunst, C.J., & Gorman, E. (in press). Development of infant and toddler mark making and scribbling. CELLreviews, Vol.2., No.2.

25

26 Average ages (and standard deviations) for depicting the pattern of acquisition of different types of mark making, scribbling, and drawing

27 Experimental Conditions Type of drawing instrument (e.g., crayon vs. pencil) Type of drawing surface (e.g., flat vs. slanted) Type of visual prompt (e.g., blank page vs. picture as background) Type of activity (e.g., structured vs. unstructured) Type of child-adult interaction (e.g., collaborative vs. non- collaborative) Type of reinforcement (e.g., amount of visual effect)

28 Major Findings The larger the visual effect of drawing behavior, the more child drawing (d > 2.00) Drawing surfaces with backgrounds elicited more drawing than blank pages (d = 1.81) Crayons and magic markers proved to be the best drawing instruments (d = 1.32) Collaborative drawing engaged children in more drawing (d >.90) Backgrounds of people or faces elicited more drawing compared to pictures of inanimate objects (d =.46) Standard writing instruments were better than primary writing instruments (d =.34) Slanted writing surfaces made it easier for children to draw (d =.34)

29 Conclusions A translational approach to conducting research syntheses yields more information about a practice (intervention, treatment, etc.) that can be used to develop evidence-based intervention or implementation practices. The yield from translational research syntheses can help practitioners know which characteristics of a practice matter most in terms of producing desired effects. Practitioners who use the practice characteristics that are associated with positive outcomes found in a translational synthesis are using evidence-based practices.
