What Do We Know About Evidence-Based Practices?

Abstract

Many teachers have various problems in finding solutions to their students’ problems in the classroom. One of the challenges that teachers face is to make decisions about how to teach and manage students’ behavior. Due to research to practice gap, finding appropriate interventions and implementing them in the classroom might be difficult for teachers. Evidence – based practices (EBPs) are offered to close the gap between research and practice. The purpose of this study was to discuss how EBPs are determined and to provide practitioners guidance to implement them in their classrooms. Barriers to implementing EBPs and resources for EBPs were also discussed.
