Education Consulting Services

The success of your instructional program or product depends on many factors—the extent to which it is underpinned by valid and thorough research, the consistency with which it supports and is aligned with state and/or national education standards, the integrity of the evaluation and review process utilized, and even the degree of thoughtfulness that has gone into considering just how well your goals for your program align with those of your audience (e.g., teachers, schools districts, parents, etc.). Even the physical manner in which your materials have been organized assumes a high degree of importance. It helps to have first-hand experience; it also helps to care enough about what you're trying to accomplish. We do both. Through attentiveness to the overlap of student and client needs, Designed Instruction helps to make your program or product a solid match for today's classroom needs while simultaneously promoting "best practices" in school curriculum, instruction, and professional development.

Wondering what the calls for a supporting education research base mean for your organization's programs and/or products? Both the literature and the evidence base are essential in designing and developing programs and products that produce student learning. However, identifying findings that can be supported as scientific evidence can represent special challenges.
