The Doing What Works (DWW) website, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Education, is designed to translate research-based practices into practical tools to improve classroom instruction. The goal is to create an online library of resources that may help teachers, schools, districts, states and technical assistance providers implement research-based instructional practice.

Much of the DWW content is based on information from the What Works Clearinghouse (WWC), which evaluates research on practices and interventions to let the education community know what is likely to work. For each practice, it issues a guide and/or an intervention report that describes what the practice involves and what the research says. Some DWW content is based on other information and materials.

DWW also provides examples of  ways educators might apply the research findings.
