The role of meta-analysis in educational research

John Hattie , H. Jane Rogers , Hariharan Swaminathan

pp. 197-207

Meta-analysis is now a well-established form of synthesizing literature, and syntheses of meta-analyses are now being produced in educational research. The chapter provides an overview of the method, discusses syntheses of meta-analyses, and argues that these methods can be of particular assistance for establishing benchmarks of comparison about educational outcomes. The literature relating to influences on achievement is used to explore the issues.
