Sustainability of
effective teaching and school practices: Developing a model for
sustaining and extending literacy achievement Two year project, 2008-2009 Dr Mei Kuin, of the University of Auckland's Woolf Fisher Research Centre Project aim(s) The research aims to develop a cross-context model for sustaining effective teaching and school practices to continue improving student achievement after the end of an intervention. This involves identifying and explaining the conditions that enable schools to continue improving achievement (e.g. increased teachers’ pedagogical content knowledge); explaining how the conditions inter-relate, and how these relationships result in differing patterns of achievement after the intervention. The focus is on sustaining gains in reading comprehension made through two TLRI funded research-development projects in South Auckland, representing 13 Decile 1 schools with primarily Māori and Pasifika students. . Project plan
For each project, we track achievement one year after
the end of the three-year intervention with the Woolf Fisher
Research Centre. We will also survey teachers and school leaders,
interview school leaders and examine school documents to understand
the conditions for sustainability in the schools. Partnerships involved 13 Decile 1 schools with primarily Māori and Pasifika students. The research questions are:
