United States10 participantsStarted 2024-04-01

Plain-language summary

The goal of the research study is to increase teachers' implementation of evidence-based practices in Early Head Start classrooms through the delivery of a professional development (PD) training intervention. The main questions that the study aims to answer are: 1. Does teacher participation in a PD intervention improve the use of evidence-based practices from pre- to posttest? 2. To what extent is the PD intervention feasible to implement in an established child care program? 3. To what extent is the PD program acceptable to teachers? Participants will attend PD workshops and participate in content-related job-embedded coaching sessions during the implementation of the study.
