Research Insights

• McMillan / McGraw Hill – most popular core• Heggerty is most popular intervention• Study demographics do not match state

demographics• Some districts were reluctant to participate• Participating districts were eager to see results• Some districts prefer to do their own

intervention while others prefer programmatic.

More to Do…

• Expand demographic range of districts• Explore correlations between interventions

and student achievement (Any gains?)• Rate satisfaction with assessment usage -• Identify researched based interventions • Find ways to make updated information

available• Elicit and incorporate audience suggestions

Workshop Evaluation

• What was most helpful?• What would have made this more helpful?• What will you be using from today’s

presentation?
