DESCRIPTION:This event features two talks from two very recent
  and large-scale projects that examine the impact 
 of dialogic teaching on student learning. \n\nThe 
 first by *Dr Jan Hardman* (University of York) wil
 l discuss a large-scale school-based teacher PD in
 tervention entitled ‘Classroom talk\,\nsocial disa
 dvantage and educational attainment: raising stand
 ards\, closing the gap’. Funded by the Education E
 ndowment Foundation (EEF)\, the study was a collab
 orative project between the University\nof York (w
 ith Frank Hardman) and the Cambridge Primary Revie
 w Trust (Robin Alexander). Using an experimental d
 esign\, a positive impact on children’s learning w
 as found using standardised tests in primary Engli
 sh\, mathematics and science. This presentation fo
 cuses on the findings of the process evaluation of
  the study. It will present an analysis of lesson 
 videos to study the impact of the PD intervention 
 on the pedagogical practices of teachers and the p
 articipation of pupils in whole class talk.\n\nThe
  second talk by *Professor Christine Howe* (Univer
 sity of Cambridge) has a similar focus. Patterns o
 f classroom dialogue have been spotlighted as crit
 ical for teaching and learning. Hypotheses have be
 en proposed about optimal patterns\, yet it remain
 s uncertain how beneficial these are in practice. 
 The need for additional evidence underpins the ESR
 C-funded project (carried out with Neil Mercer\, S
 ara Hennessy\, Maria Vrikki & Lisa Wheatley) that 
 this presentation will report. A large representat
 ive sample of classroom dialogue has been obtained
  and analyzed via a scheme that requires coding sp
 eaker turns and rating full lessons. Analyzed dial
 ogue has been related to measures of student outco
 me. This presentation\nwill outline positive assoc
 iations between dialogue and outcome that have bee
 n detected. It will also highlight the significanc
 e of the results for methodology\, theory and prac
 tice.
