Pathway to Academic Success Project. Intervention Brief. English Learners Topic Area. WWC 2022-004
What Works Clearinghouse
The "Pathway to Academic Success Project" trains teachers to improve the reading and writing abilities of English learners (ELs) who have an intermediate level of English proficiency by incorporating cognitive strategies into reading and writing instruction. This What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) intervention report, part of the WWC's English Learners topic area, explores the effects of the "Pathway to Academic Success Project" on writing quality, writing conventions, and literacy achievement for ELs. The WWC identified five studies of the "Pathway to Academic Success Project." Three of these studies meet WWC standards. The evidence presented in this report is from these three studies on ELs--with a sample in which 94% of students are Hispanic--in grades 6 to 12 in three urban and three suburban school districts. This Intervention Brief provides an overview of the full Intervention Report. [For the Intervention Report, see ED615959. For the Intervention Report Snapshot, see ED615957.]
