Inequalities in home learning and schools’ provision of distance teaching during school closure of COVID-19 lockdown in the UK - Bayrakdar, Sait; Guveli, Ayse
Parents and schools were caught unprepared during the COVID-19 school closure. Since schools have a key role in creating equal opportunities, transferring schooling to families is likely to increase learning inequalities. Using the Understandings Society COVID-19 dataset, we find children who received free school meals, children from lower-educated and singleparent families and children with Pakistani or Bangladeshi backgrounds devote significantly less time to schoolwork at home. Schools’ provisions of offline and online distance teaching and homework checking significantly increase the time children spend on home learning and mitigate most of the disadvantages.

Over-promotion and caution in abstracts of preprints during the COVID-19 crisis - Bordignon, Frederique; Ermakova, Liana; Noel, Marianne (Learned Publishing)
The abstract is known to be a promotional genre where researchers tend to exaggerate the benefit of their research and use a promotional discourse to catch the reader's attention. The COVID-19 pandemic has prompted intensive research and has changed traditional publishing with the massive adoption of preprints by researchers. Our aim is to investigate whether the crisis and the ensuing scientific and economic competition have changed the lexical content of abstracts. We propose a comparative study of abstracts associated with preprints issued in response to the pandemic relative to abstracts produced during the closest pre-pandemic period. We show that with the increase (on average and in percentage) of positive words (especially effective) and the slight decrease of negative words, there is a strong increase in hedge words (the most frequent of which are the modal verbs can and may). Hedge words counterbalance the excessive use of positive words and thus invite the readers, who go probably beyond the ‘usual’ audience, to be cautious with the obtained results. The abstracts of preprints urgently produced in response to the COVID-19 crisis stand between uncertainty and over-promotion, illustrating the balance that authors have to achieve between promoting their results and appealing for caution.

From Distance Education to Open and Distance Learning: A Holistic Evaluation of History, Definitions, and Theories - Bozkurt, Aras; Bozkurt, Aras (http://services.igi-global.com/resolvedoi/resolve.aspx?doi=10.4018/978-1-5225-8431-5.ch016, 2001)
As pragmatist, interdisciplinary fields, distance education (DE) and open and distance learning (ODL) transform and adapt themselves according to changing paradigms. In this regard, the purpose of this study is to examine DE and ODL from different perspectives to discern their future directions. The study concludes that DE and ODL are constantly developing interdisciplinary fields where technology has become a significant catalyst and these fields become part of the mainstream education. However, mainstreaming should be evaluated with caution, and there is a need to revisit core values and fundamentals where critical pedagogy would have a pivotal role. Besides, there is no single theory that best explains these interdisciplinary fields, and therefore, there is a need to benefit from different theoretical approaches. Finally, as a result of constant changes, we should keep the definition of both DE and ODL up-to-date to better explain the needs of the global teaching and learning ecosystem.

Learning at home: home schooling resources and children’s learning during the COVID-19 lockdown in France and Italy - Champeaux, Hugues; Mangiavacchi, Lucia; Marchetta, Francesca; Piccoli, Luca
School closures, forced by the COVID-19 crisis in many countries, impacted on children’s lives and their learning process. There will likely be substantial and persistent disparities between families in terms of education outcomes. Distant learning solutions adopted by schools have been heterogeneous over countries, within countries and between school levels. As a consequence, most of the burden of children’s learning fell on their parents, with likely uneven results depending on the socio-economic characteristics of the family. Using a real time survey data collected in April 2020 and early May in France and Italy on children’s use of time, distance learning resources and emotional status, we analyse how the lockdown has aﬀected children’s use of time, their emotional wellbeing and their home learning process. We also estimate child ﬁxed eﬀects models to identify the main contributors of children’s status during the lockdown. The analysis focuses on the role played by online classes or other interactive methods on children’s home learning and emotional status. We ﬁnd that the lockdown had a stronger impact on Italian families, both in terms of educational progress evaluation and of children’s emotional status, but attending online classes strongly reduced the negative impact in Italy, highlighting the major role played by teachers and children’s interaction with them in the Italian educational system. The less rigidly structured French classes, changing often teachers and classmates, may have contributed to build children’s independence from teachers and peer interactions, increasing their educational resilience during the COVID-19 lockdown.

The performance of school assignment mechanisms in practice - de Haan, Monique; Gautier, Pieter A; Oosterbeek, Hessel
On the basis of theory alone, it is hard to advise school districts which school assignment mechanism to adopt. While the Deferred Acceptance (DA) mechanism has some desirable properties (strategy proofness and stability) that the Boston mechanism lacks, Boston may outperform DA in terms of welfare because it allows students to express the intensity of their preferences. We use a unique combination of administrative data and survey data to compare the two mechanisms empirically. We ﬁnd that DA results in higher average welfare than Boston. This ﬁnding contradicts the baseline results from some recent studies that use structural approaches. This contradiction can be attributed to the structural models’ assumption that students do not make strategic mistakes. When we impose this assumption, the welfare ranking of the mechanisms reverses.

Noise Levels in Malaysia Primary Schools: Are We Meeting the International Standards? - Ismail, Noraidah; Karim, Khairani
Noise is increasingly becoming a problem in schools and affects the audibility of speech. The effects of noise hamper learning opportunities for students. Noisy classrooms affect students’ academic performance and wellbeing. Studies have shown that children perform more poorly in noisy situations compared to adults. The current study was done to measure noise levels in classrooms in primary schools in Kuantan. A total of 31 classrooms from eight residential primary schools were selected as the place of study. The noise levels were measured using a sound level meter (SLM) in occupied and unoccupied conditions. On-site observations and checking were done and documented in each school and classroom. The results showed that the noise levels of occupied and unoccupied classrooms were higher than the values recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO) which are 35 dB(A) and 55 dB(A) respectively. The findings showed that the measured noise levels in the classrooms were high enough that it might interfere with the effectiveness of teaching and learning among students and teachers. The source of noise was mainly from the students’ activities in the classes. The current study discusses a few possible suggestions to improve the classroom acoustics.

Market design seeks to translate economic theory and analysis into practical solutions to real-world problems. By redesigning both the rules that guide market transactions and the infrastructure that enables those transactions to take place, market designers can address a broad range of market failures. In this paper, we illustrate the process and power of market design through three examples: the design of medical residency matching programs; a scrip system to allocate food donations to food banks; and the recent “Incentive Auction” that reallocated wireless spectrum from television broadcasters to telecoms. Our lead examples show how eﬀective market design can encourage participation, reduce gaming, and aggregate information, in order to improve liquidity, eﬃciency, and equity in markets. We also discuss a number of fruitful applications of market design in other areas of economic and public policy.

Harmful Signaling in Matching Markets - Kushnir, Alexey
Several labor markets, including the job market for new Ph.D. economists, have recently developed formal signaling mechanisms. We show that such mechanisms are harmful for some environments. While signals transmit previously unavailable information, they also facilitate information asymmetry that leads to coordination failures. In particular, we consider a two-sided matching game of incomplete information between ﬁrms and workers. Each worker has either the same ”typical” known preferences with probability close to one or ”atypical” idiosyncratic preferences with the complementary probability close to zero. Firms have known preferences over workers. We show that under some technical condition if at least three ﬁrms are responsive to some worker’s signal, the introduction of signaling strictly decreases the expected number of matches.

What Can Decolonisation of Curriculum Tell Us About Inclusive Assessment? - Lambert, Sarah; Funk, Johanna; Adam, Taskeen (Routledge)
This chapter presents a Culturally Inclusive Assessment model and examples developed from our work to address legacies of racist and sexist curriculum and experiences. By drawing on the theories and principles that have informed work on the cultural diversification of learning materials and online courses, we have identified opportunities for Culturally Inclusive Assessment tasks, feedback, and processes. Our interest is to re-imagine assessment through the lenses of anti-racism and decolonialisation to address how inclusive assessment can be developed to better meet the needs of contemporary higher education. Salient features of the current context include the socio-cultural diversity of the student cohort and a desire for internationalising the curriculum, both of which have never been more pertinent. The chapter also provides stimulus questions based on the Culturally Inclusive Assessment model to help readers develop their own more culturally inclusive units, curriculum and assessments based on decolonising the content, the learning processes or pedagogy as a whole.

Trade-oﬀs in School Choice: Comparing Deferred Acceptance, the Classic and the Adaptive Boston Mechanism - Mennle, Timo; Seuken, Sven
The three most common school choice mechanisms are the Deferred Acceptance mechanism (DA), the classic Boston mechanism (BM), and a variant of the Boston mechanism where students automatically skip exhausted schools, which we call the adaptive Boston mechanism (ABM). Assuming truthful reporting, we compare student welfare under these mechanisms both from a conceptual and from a quantitative perspective: We first show that, BM rank dominates DA whenever they are comparable; and via limit arguments and simulations we show that ABM yields intermediate student welfare between BM and DA. Second, we perform computational experiments with preference data from the high school match in Mexico City. We find that student welfare (in terms of rank transitions) is highest under BM, intermediate under ABM, and lowest under DA. BM, ABM, and DA can thus be understood to form a hierarchy in terms of student welfare. In contrast, in (Mennle and Seuken, 2017), we have found that the same mechanisms also form a hierarchy in terms of incentives for truthtelling that points in the opposite direction. A decision between them therefore involves an implicit trade-off between incentives and student welfare.

Learning about Program Design With Rugged Fitness Spaces - Nadel, Sara; Pritchett, Lant
We propose that we live in a world characterized by a hyperdimensional design space with a rugged ﬁtness function. All aspects of our environment interact to change the outcomes and impact of social programs (hyperdimensionality). Small adjustments to program designs can cause big changes to outcomes and impact (rugged ﬁtness function). In this world, we beneﬁt from learning about social programs through testing more points along the design space, even when our sample sizes are compromised. We run a simulation comparing the program impact when learning is done through crawling the design space (CDS) vs. through randomized control trials and ﬁnd that CDS generates greater impact. We motivate our study through our experiences designing a skill set-signaling program for new entrants to the labor market.

Building a System of Assessment in a School System to Promote Equity and Epistemic Justice - Penuel, Bill
Efforts to imagine new possibilities for principled ways to align assessment with sociocognitive foundations of learning in social interaction and with instruction are limited by the absence of credible use cases that show how such systems can be developed and maintained within complex educational systems such as large urban school districts. Such a use case can be found within evolving joint work of a researchpractice partnership between a university and a large urban school district. The system we are building together focuses on the goals of informing and supporting the redistribution of educational opportunities in science classrooms (equity) and on supporting and repairing students’ perceptions of themselves as having agency as a knower and reasoner in their science classrooms and the community (epistemic justice). In this chapter, we describe different components and practices that work together to accomplish these aims: a curriculum with embedded assessments that allows students to figure out rather than be told core ideas; regularly administered exit tickets that elicit students’ experience of the classroom; and an instructional guidance system that is focused on iterative refinement of teacher learning opportunities to support student agency. We present evidence of teacher perceptions and uptake of these components and practices, to develop an account of what this particular case can and cannot tell us about the possibilities for designing assessment systems in a district that are thoroughly grounded in contemporary theories of teaching and learning.

Running Head: DISTRICT PARTNERSHIP TO IMPROVE ASSESSMENT - Penuel, William R; DeBarger, Angela Haydel
This chapter describes an approach to supporting and investigating teacher learning of formative assessment in middle school Earth science. The approach illustrates a framework for conducting research on and supporting instructional improvement at scale in partnership with school districts. In the project, researchers worked in partnership with teachers and leaders in a large urban district to design and test classroom assessment resources intended to improve the efficacy of district-adopted curriculum materials. The project tested the value the resources add to the curriculum in a small-scale, quasi-experimental field trial. This chapter highlights both the potential and challenges of research-practice partnerships for promoting district-wide improvements to classroom assessment, highlighting the ways the partnership supported efforts to create vertical, horizontal, and developmental coherence to a district’s assessment system.

Let’s Take the Con Out of Randomized Control Trials in Development: The Puzzles and Paradoxes of External Validity, Empirically Illustrated - Pritchett, Lant
The enthusiasm for the potential of RCTs in development rests in part on the assumption that the use of the rigorous evidence that emerges from an RCT (or from a small set of studies identified as rigorous in a “systematic” review) leads to the adoption of more effective policies, programs or projects. However, the supposed benefits of using rigorous evidence for “evidence based” policy making depend critically on the extent to which there is external validity. If estimates of causal impact or treatment effects that have internal validity (are unbiased) in one context (where the relevant “context” could be country, region, implementing organization, complementary policies, initial conditions, etc.) cannot be applied to another context then applying evidence that is rigorous in one context may actually reduce predictive accuracy in other contexts relative to simple evidence from that context—even if that evidence is biased (Pritchett and Sandefur 2015). Using empirical estimates from a large number of developing countries of the difference in student learning in public and private schools (just as one potential policy application) I show that commonly made assumptions about external validity are, in the face of the actual observed heterogeneity across contexts, both logically incoherent and empirically unhelpful. Logically incoherent, in that it is impossible to reconcile general claims about external validity of rigorous estimates of causal impact and the heterogeneity of the raw facts about differentials. Empirically unhelpful in that using a single (or small set) of rigorous estimates to apply to all other actually leads to a larger root mean square error of prediction of the “true” causal impact across contexts than just using the estimates from non-experimental data from each country. In the data about private and public schools, under plausible assumptions, an exclusive reliance on the rigorous evidence has RMSE three times worse than using the biased OLS result from each context. In making policy decisions one needs to rely on an understanding of the relevant phenomena that encompasses all of the available evidence.
