Subclaims¶
Reading the evidence codes
q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r
the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.
This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.
q2 i1 In a 2016-2017 matched comparison study of intervention-eligible students in grades 5 through 8, Math 180 students demonstrated significantly greater gains on the NWEA MAP mathematics assessment than comparison students after baseline equivalence was established, with an effect size of +0.23. → Math 180® Evidence Rating Summary 2017

q2 · i1 · causal · r2
A matched comparison study in the 2016-2017 school year examined intervention-eligible students in grades 5 through 8. The summary reports that "Math 180 students demonstrated significantly greater gains on the NWEA MAP mathematics assessment than comparison students (effect size = +0.23)" after baseline equivalence was established.
"The second study, conducted in the 2016 to 2017 school year, used a matched comparison design with students in Grades 5 through 8 who were eligible for intervention. After establishing baseline equivalence, Math 180 students demonstrated significantly greater gains on the NWEA MAP mathematics assessment than comparison students (effect size = +0.23)."
