Welcome to the Education Coordinating Group
The Campbell Collaboration is an international non-profit organization that aims to help people make well-informed decisions about the effects of interventions in the social, behavioral, and educational arenas.
The Education Coordinating Group is an international network of volunteer professionals who will prepare, update and rapidly disseminate systematic reviews of high-quality educational and training interventions conducted worldwide that are aimed to improve education and learning.
The objectives of the ECG are:
- To undertake and maintain a series of up-to-date, critical and systematic reviews of intervention/instruction/remediation/treatment in education. These reviews will focus attention on substantive topics through the summary and analysis of high quality research evidence provided by studies using randomized designs.
- To establish a network of collaborators wishing to undertake or contribute to systematic reviews education.
- To establish and maintain a specialized register of randomized research in education.
- To facilitate and encourage consumer involvement in the group's activities. Consumers are considered to be partners in each step of the review process: from priority setting, through initiating and conducting reviews, to disseminating results.
- To provide training in the form of workshops, courses, or symposia that will guide interested authors in producing systematic reviews in the area of education.
The products of our work, including approved titles, protocols and completed reviews, can be viewed at www.campbellcollaboration.org/frontend.aspx.
