A New Platform for Practitioner Evidence and Research

The Excellence Gateway holds scores (around 500 so far) of FE and Training practitioners' research resources. These include reports of classroom teaching techniques, results of applying digital technologies to existing practices, and a wide range of resources generated by colleges and other providers in, for instance, the Outstanding Teaching Learning and Assessment (OTLA) programmes. The materials include practitioner researchers’ succinct reports of what was tried and how effective it was together, in many cases, with presentations, classroom materials, evaluation tools and other useful resources.

CUREE has working with the Education and Training Foundation (ETF) to introduce:

  • a single point of access to all practitioner-research resources
  • a new, easy to use starting page to help you find your way to the resources
  • better ways of selecting and filtering the large number of materials to the select few of relevance to the searcher
  • stronger links with the Professional Standards

The facility - called the Practitioner Research and Evidence Portal - or PREP - is up and running and can be accessed here. Click below for more information about the development project
