Monitoring and Sanctioning Cheating at School: What Works? Evidence from a National Evaluation Program
We exploit a randomized experiment in Italian schools to assess the causal effect of both an external monitoring program and a sanctions program on cheating behavior and absence rates. We find, in line with previous studies, that external monitoring is effective in deterring cheating occurring during and after the test. We show evidence of a strategic response to monitoring in terms of higher absence rates. Sanctions are not effective in reducing cheating, while they might have a discipline effect in decreasing absence rates. Both programs work better in institutional settings that make the potential loss of reputation costlier to the school.

Tracking modal parameters evolution of a school building during retrofitting works
During a seismic improvement intervention that lasted more than one year, a reinforced concrete (RC) school building had been surveyed through dynamic monitoring, granting continuous updates on its global response. Operational modal analysis was carried out to have a proper understanding of the structure's dynamic evolution, using a finite element model to perform a non invasive and quantitative structural assessment taking into account the interactions with the surroundings. During the whole restoration works, the long term (periodic) monitoring campaign showed the increment of the building performance remarked by the variation of natural frequencies. Also, the experimental assessment of the influence of infill masonry panels on the dynamics of RC frame is shown at each upgraded configuration. Additional restoration works, that may eventually occur, could benefit from the data collected during the present ambient vibration survey, providing useful parameters to enhance the retrofitting and the dynamic behavior of the structure.

School Works au Royaume Uni
School Works, une entreprise britannique sans but lucratif, a mis au point un processus de conception d'ecole secondaire qui permet aux collectivites de creer des batiments scolaires exclusifs qui repondent a leurs besoins particuliers. Ce processus repose sur un principe fondamental ce sont les personnes qui travaillent et qui s'instruisent chaque jour dans un batiment scolaire qui en comprennent l'esprit, les exigences, les points forts et les faiblesses c'est en mobilisant reellement l'adhesion de la communaute scolaire que l'on fait naitre un sens profond de propriete et de respect vis a vis du batiment. School Works a mis en pratique son processus de participation dans une ecole du centre de Londres.

School Works in the United Kingdom
School Works, a not for profit company in the United Kingdom, has developed a secondary school design process which enables communities to create unique school buildings that cater for their own particular needs. At the heart of this process is the basic principle that it is the people who work and learn in a school building every day who really understand its ethos, its needs, its strengths and its weaknesses, and that truly involving the school community will generate an innate sense of ownership and respect for the buildings. School Works has put its participatory process into practice at an inner city school in London.

School based programmes to reduce and prevent substance use in different age groups: What works for whom? Systematic review and meta regression analysis.
BACKGROUND Findings from systematic reviews and meta analyses about the effectiveness of school based programmes to prevent or reduce substance abuse are inconclusive. We hypothesise that in order to be effective, programmes have to be aligned with the developmental stages of the intended target group (childhood, early, middle, or late adolescence) The present study provides an overview of universal and targeted programmes, while distinguishing four age groups and examining which intervention characteristics are the effective components for the respective groups. METHODS Databases were searched for controlled studies of school based programmes, evaluating their effectiveness on either smoking, alcohol or drug use. Multivariate meta regression analysis was used to analyse the associations between effects and programme characteristics. RESULTS Our meta analysis evaluates 288 programmes with a total of 436,180 participants. The findings support our hypothesis that specific aspects of the school based programmes are effective in some developmental stages, but not for other age groups. The differences in effectiveness are systematically related to psychological and cognitive needs and capacities. DISCUSSION Our findings highlight the importance of considering a developmental perspective when designing and offering school based prevention programmes. The various developmental stages offer different possibilities and opportunities for the reduction and prevention of substance use.
