On the basis of the prior success of the PLTL model, we hypothesized that it would lead to increased achievement for all of our students who participated in the experience.
In this prospective, randomized, controlled study, benchmarking was shown to be an effective tool for increasing achievement of critical quality indicators and potentially reducing patient cardiovascular residual risk profile.
CONCLUSIONS Introduction of pay-for-performance may be one factor contributing to increasing achievement of targets and reducing problems of low performance.
On Grant Street, Bennet had surrounded himself with some brilliant, determined people, among them Brad Jupp, who had helped design the model program to pay teachers for increasing achievement and, in an earlier incarnation as a middle-school teacher, persuaded inner-city adolescents to share his love of Ezra Pound.
Against backgrounds of overall increasing achievement, there was still substantial scope for improvement towards the end of the scheme.
For practice to increase achievement, the practice must be similar to the tasks students are expected to perform (transfer-appropriate principle; Morris et al., 1977; Ericsson et al., 1993; Thomas and McDaniel, 2007; Jensen et al., 2014).
Research shows that increasing testing does not increase achievement.
Risk for mania has been associated with highly ambitious goal setting and increased achievement-related goals (Gruber & Johnson, 2009; Johnson, 2005; Johnson & Carver, 2006).
Miami-Dade County has built a transparent management system that helps identify and restructure low-performing schools and increase academic achievement for students.
We hypothesize the TeamCare-PCN intervention will reduce depressive symptoms, increase achievements of targets for cardio-metabolic measures, improve lifestyle behaviors, and be cost-effective.
