Mingyu Feng; Gary Weiser; Kelly Collins
WestEd
This report delves into the cost and effectiveness of the ASSISTments program as an online math support tool. Aiming to replicate previous findings, the study focused on the impact of ASSISTments on student learning in seventh-grade classrooms. The report outlines the study's objectives, setting, and participants alongside the study design, methods, and intervention details. Additionally, it investigates the effectiveness of ASSISTments and the data collection process for cost analysis. The pricing of "ingredients" used in the program's implementation is also discussed, and the cost-effectiveness ratio findings are presented. Overall, this comprehensive analysis provides significant insights into the costs of implementing technology-based programs like ASSISTments and their potential impact on student learning outcomes.
