Abstract

The use of randomized experiments in education has become increasingly popular and prevalent in educational research. The Department of Education in the United States, for example, has labeled randomized experiments as the “gold standard” in educational research. The World Bank often requires developing countries to use randomization in determining the assignment and use of new educational innovations. The focus and goal of this course is for participants to have the basic tools to plan and to conduct randomized experiments. We will cover a number of major topics including the potential outcome model, the counterfactual problem and the stable unit treatment value assumption. We will also deal with i) sample size and power, ii) the analysis of experimental data, and iii) threats to the internal and external validity of experimental designs.
