Links to Learning Application: An Analysis of Usage and Impact

Summary of Findings:

Miami-Dade County Public Schools conducted an independent analysis of interventions used within their district. The analysis examined students in grades 3 through 10 who were at different levels of ability. The analysis was conducted to determine the effectiveness of programs in improving students’ reading and/or math FCAT scores.

The results showed that Reading Plus had a significant positive effect for students of all ability levels and at all grade levels. This report was also conducted for the 2010-2011 school year with nearly identical results, leading Miami-Dade Public Schools to state that Reading Plus was found to have a consistent beneficial impact on the achievement of the students who used the program.
