Delivering a high-quality educational program requires measuring its effectiveness and making necessary adjustments along the way.
At the Johns Hopkins School of Education, we’re committed to improving educational programs and initiatives by expanding the body of evidence on what makes them effective.
From assessing what your stakeholders really think about your school community to identifying at-risk students early on, our expertise leads to informed decisions.
Our experts evaluate programs for all grade levels and content areas, as well as overarching topics in education, including school completion, post-secondary readiness (career and college), school reforms and partnerships, education technology, education policy, and community engagement.

FCPS partnered with the Center for Research and Reform in Education to evaluate a phased rollout of its FCPSOn program over several years. An innovative approach to technology-enhanced education and blended learning, FCPSOn involves the distribution of personal laptops for students, targeted professional development for teachers, unique tools for technology-enhanced classrooms, and moving beyond high-stakes assessment.
Focus areas examined in the first three years included student technology use, teacher technology practices, and family technology perceptions. Among other key points, CRRE found high agreement among teachers — over 75% — that students had improved in their use of technology as a learning tool each year.
