Abstract

The STARS project was a randomized evaluation that tested whether teachers would be more likely to adopt a new pedagogy known as differentiated instruction, with additional support from their managers. The RCT had 3 treatment arms:
T1) Pure control; T2) “DI + Instructional Management”- Training and learning materials on differentiated instruction (DI) for teachers, their supervisors (head teachers, or principals), and circuit supervisors (i.e., the supervisors of the head teachers) 3) “DI + Instructional + People Management”- Everything in T2 plus additional management training for head teachers and circuit supervisors on people management skills to transform their role and be seen as supportive coaches. The baseline survey conducted surveys with circuit supervisors, head teachers, teachers, and students. Students were also assessed on their English and math competencies.
