Evidence-Based Practices
What is an evidence-based practice?
Evidence-based practices (EBP) are teaching methods, strategies, and interventions that have been scientifically proven to be effective and improve student outcomes. EBPs are scientifically proven and supported by science.
Why are EBPs needed?
Evidence-based practices should be implemented in the classroom because they allow teachers to provide students with a high-quality curriculum, instruction, and interventions. EBPs have been proven to improve educational outcomes for students.
