  • A Peer-Based Approach to Learning Acceleration
    2025/08/28

    SRI and LEARN Network Senior Research Adrienne Woods joins Alida Hudson, researcher with the American Institutes for Research (AIR), to discuss PALS-RD (Peer-Assisted Learning Strategies with Reading Differentiation), an evidence-based literacy program designed to accelerate recovery in reading in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Woods and Hudson explore the program’s development, scaling journey, and impact, and discuss key takeaways for educators, researchers, and other interest holders.

    PALS-RD was created as an adaptation of the long-standing PALS model, which pairs students in structured, peer-based activities to strengthen fluency and comprehension. By integrating continuous progress monitoring and word study strategies, the PALS-RD program supports students who may have missed critical early literacy foundations during school closures.

    Early results show that students with weaker reading comprehension made measurable gains, and teachers reported that the program fit easily alongside existing curricula. With plans to expand to more districts nationwide, PALS-RD represents a promising tool for literacy recovery at scale.

  • From Idea to Impact: Marketing Educational Innovations for Maximum Reach
    2025/04/23

    In Episode 16 of The SRI Homeroom podcast, host Keith Heumiller joins SRI Senior Education Researcher Adrienne Woods and Julie Kelleher, founder of the Kelleher Consulting Group, to explore the critical role of marketing in bringing educational innovations to scale.


    As researchers and developers work to support student success and address long-standing challenges in the K-12 classrooms, Woods and Kelleher highlight why simply creating effective, evidence-based solutions isn't enough—successful scaling demands a strategic, market-first mindset from the very beginning.


    Drawing on real-world examples and lessons learned from their work with the LEARN Network - a national initiative working to support the creation, testing, and scaling of effective, evidence-based interventions - they offer a roadmap for researchers and developers to navigate a crowded marketplace and position their innovations for maximum impact.


    They also share a broad range of free resources - including toolkits, playbooks, templates, and public workshops - designed to help education innovators move from idea to widespread adoption. Listen to the episode, download a transcript, and read more at https://learntoscale.org/

    Over the past two decades, the number of STEM graduates has doubled. Yet diversity in STEM remains a challenge, with underrepresented students facing barriers to entry and advancement.

    Today, host Jenna Nguyen talks with education researchers Andrea Beesley and Carol Tate from SRI about the work being done to foster diversity and inclusion in postsecondary STEM education.


    Beesley and Tate discuss the ongoing efforts and findings from the STEM Core Expansion Alliance, a project funded by the National Science Foundation’s Eddie Bernice Johnson INCLUDES National Network. The initiative is aimed at supporting low-income, first-generation, and underrepresented community college students pursuing STEM careers.


    Explore how community support and equitable access to education play crucial roles in addressing challenges and driving success in STEM initiatives.
