The purpose of this NCSER Initial Efficacy and Follow up research project is to conduct an efficacy study of the Promoting Algebra Readiness (PAR) intervention, a 93-lesson (Tier 2) mathematics intervention.

This project represents a continuation of the ongoing collaborative effort between the University of Oregon Center on Teaching and Learning (CTL) and Age of Learning, Inc. to evaluate the effectiveness of the ABCmouse.com Early Learning Academy, a comprehensive online early learning resource for children ages 2-6.
This project is a meta-analysis in the area of secondary (grades 6-12) math and science (M/S) writing instruction. Exploring research from 25 years, this three-year project will: a) determine the overall mean effect of M/S writing instruction on students?
Success in mathematics has major implications for student success at the public school and postsecondary levels, as well as contributing to the nation’s STEM workforce and economy. While building mathematics literacy is important for all learners, it is especially critical for students most vulnerable for academic risk.
A critical goal for the nation is ensuring all students have a successful start in learning mathematics. While strides have been made in supporting at-risk students in mathematics, significant challenges still exist.
The overarching goal of Project CIRCUITS (Center to Improve Reading Competence Using Intensive Treatments Schoolwide) is to implement, evaluate, replicate, and disseminate systemic prevention models that accelerate and sustain the early reading achievement of students with reading disabilities or at risk of disabilities in grades K-3.
The purpose of this project is to develop a new tablet-based measure in English and Spanish, Computer-Adaptive Storybook Assessment (CASA), to monitor language and literacy progress in preschoolers with disabilities or at risk for later language difficulties.
The home mathematics environment (HME) includes characteristics of the family and home setting that contribute to children developing mathematical understanding and skills.
Early learning in mathematics (ELM) is a Goal 3 Efficacy and Replication study focused on testing the impact of a core kindergarten mathematics program. The ELM program contains 120 lessons that address mathematics topics identified in the Common Core State Standards for kindergarten mathematics.
The purpose of this project is to conduct a meta-analysis of group-design mathematics interventions targeting foundational whole number concepts, with a focus on children with and at risk for disabilities and mathematics difficulty in prekindergarten (preK) through grade 1.
