Efficacy of Zearn Math
Zearn Math has shown promise for improving student mathematics achievement, but its efficacy has not yet been established through a rigorous, well-powered evaluation. Researchers at the non-profit RAND Corporation (RAND) will evaluate the efficacy of Zearn Math for improving student mathematics outcomes in grades 3 to 5. The study will employ a randomized controlled trial, complemented by studies of implementation and cost. RAND will conduct this evaluation independently of Zearn, the non-pr...

Efficacy of ALEKS for Improving Student Algebra Achievement
The purpose of this project is to evaluate the efficacy of Assessment and LEarning in Knowledge Spaces (ALEKS), a fully developed digital curriculum supplement for Algebra 1. For an entire academic year, students will use ALEKS daily for approximately half of the district's 90-minute algebra class period. Remaining class time will be led by the classroom teacher, employing traditional classroom activities informed by data provided by ALEKS, based on the students' usage.

Effectiveness of Cognitive Tutor Algebra One Implemented at Scale
The primary purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of the Cognitive Tutor® Algebra I curriculum on mathematics achievement when the curriculum was implemented at scale. Although many educators recognize the need for improved mathematics instruction, school staff currently have few evidence-based options from which to choose. Therefore, this study addresses the need for scale-up evaluations of mathematics curriculums.

Experimental Field Study of Cognitive Tutor Geometry Curriculum
In this study, researchers obtained evidence on the effectiveness of Cognitive Tutor Geometry, a high school geometry curriculum that has shown promise in earlier quasi-experimental studies. The program combines individualized tutorial software with teacher-guided group work and problem-solving. As of the early 2000s, data from the National Assessment of Education Progress showed very low mathematics proficiency among high school students, with large gaps in the performance of students of di...
