1 Woodward & Baxter (1997) compared the Heath Mathematics curriculum to the Everyday Mathematics curriculum, and was included in the Everyday Mathematics intervention report. The WWC did not produce a Heath Mathematics intervention report because the curriculum is no longer distributed.
2 Lacks evidence for baseline equivalence: this study, which used a quasi-experimental design, did not establish that the comparison group was equivalent to the intervention group at baseline in a pretest measure of math achievement.
3 Does not use a strong causal design: the study did not use a comparison group.
4. Lacks evidence for baseline equivalence: the study, which used a quasi-experimental design, did not establish that the comparison group was equivalent to the treatment group at the baseline.
5 Intervention is not relevant: intervention does not meet the WWC standards of an elementary school math curriculum.
6 The sample is not appropriate to this review: this study did not focus on students in U. S. schools, one of the parameters for this WWC review.
7 The outcome measures are not relevant to this review: this study does not look at mathematics achievement outcomes.
8 Does not use a strong causal design: there was only one intervention and/or one comparison unit, so the analysis could not separate the effects of the intervention from other factors.
9 Does not use a strong causal design: this is a qualitative study.
10 Intervention is not relevant: this study evaluated a field test version of the curriculum, not the final version.
11 Complete data are not reported: the WWC could not compute effect sizes because complete data were not reported. Attempts to contact the authors for more information were unsuccessful.
12 Intervention is not relevant: the implementation length of the curriculum was less than a full semester.
13 Disruption: the study, which used a quasi-experimental design, demonstrated problems with disruption or contamination.
14. This single-case study has not yet been reviewed. The WWC is currently developing standards for the review of single-case studies.
