Ben Clarke; Nancy J. Nelson; Leanne Ketterlin Geller; Derek Kosty; Keith Smolkowski; Taylor Lesner; David Furjanic; Hank Fien – Grantee Submission, 2022
This pilot study examined the promise of a Tier 2 sixth grade intervention program for students at-risk for difficulties in mathematics. The study utilized a quasi-experimental design. The final sample included 112 students in treatment (Promoting Algebra Readiness) and 86 students in control (standard district practice) conditions. The Promoting…
