N2  - Public school systems are now under increasing pressure to close achievement gaps between the able and less-able students, minority and non-minority students, and disadvantaged students and their non-disadvantaged peers. Moreover, there is now an expectation that schools and teachers will use those programs and practices that have been demonstrated to be are efficacious through rigorous scientific research. Evidence-based teaching: Strategies that promote learning is designed to provide teachers with an overview of the types of evidence that can be used to enhance their teaching practices. It does this by documenting those practices that have been used effectively in classrooms to facilitate how teachers teach and how students learn. This text is designed to make teachers aware of how to critically evaluate different types of evidence that can be used to inform their teaching practice. It achieves this by making explicit the link between theory, research and practice
