Strategy · All strategies
Evidence · no claims cited

Description¶

Education Corps embeds implementation infrastructure around tutoring: school-based Tutoring Leads work with Ed Corps staff to identify eligible students and coordinate scheduling, tutoring is aligned and scheduled to complement core instruction, and progress monitoring and impact evaluation support continue throughout and after the school year. A digital Tutor Session Log tracks "which students are being tutored, by whom, on what skills, when, and with what frequency" to ensure high-quality implementation and continuous improvement.

Design Implications¶

Target Learning Goals¶
