چکیده
This study examines the impact on student achievement of implementing a bundle of best practices from high-performing charter schools into lowperforming, traditional public schools in Houston, Texas, using a school-level randomized field experiment and quasi-experimental comparisons. The five practices in the bundle are increased instructional time, more effective teachers and administrators, high-dosage tutoring, data-driven instruction, and a culture of high expectations. The findings show that injecting best practices from charter schools into traditional Houston public schools significantly increases student math achievement in treated elementary and secondary schools—by 0.15 to 0.18 standard deviations a year—and has little effect on reading achievement. Similar bundles of practices are found to significantly raise math achievement in analyses for public schools in a field experiment in Denver and program in Chicago. JEL Codes: I21, I24, I28, J24.

Spacewire and Ieee 1355 Revisited Session: Standardization Long Paper
The ECSS (European Cooperation for Space Standardization) SpaceWire standard includes a list of changes from the standard from which it was derived, IEEE 1355. Several of these changes are improvements, for example fixing the initialization state machine, adding Time Codes, and adding a network layer. The list in the SpaceWire standard does not include a number of aspects of 1355 that SpaceWire...
متن کاملRealisation and Performance of IEEE 1355 DS and HS Link based, High Speed, Low Latency Packet Switching Networks
We report on the construction of a 1024 node switching network using IEEE 1355 DS link technology. The nodes are interconnected by a switching fabric based on the STC104 packet switch. The system has been designed and constructed in a modular way in order to allow a variety of different network topologies to be investigated. Network throughput and latency have been studied for different topolog...
متن کاملEffect of a mucoactive compound (CO 1408) on airway hyperreactivity and inflammation induced by passive cigarette smoke exposure in guinea-pigs.
Environmental exposure to tobacco smoke contributes to the onset of several lung diseases, e.g. chronic bronchitis and asthma, including an increase in airway reactivity. We have investigated the effect of a new mucoactive compound, CO 1408, on airway hyperreactivity and lung inflammation induced in guinea-pigs by passive cigarette smoke exposure. Animals were exposed to cigarette smoke in a Pl...
متن کاملHardware for transputing without transputers
Transputing without transputers is mostly concerned with porting software to make other processors behave like transputers. One key aspect of the hardware is to provide these other processors with links. In the board described in this paper, IEEE 1355 DS-Links are chosen to plug in to PCI, which offers good performance, is inexpensive, and pervasive. The board uses a PCI chip, two C101 parallel...
