| Abstract: |
Edmentum offers a personalized learning platform called Exact Path. Over the past five years, about 56 schools and districts in Virginia have implemented the program. This quasiexperimental study, designed to meet ESSA Tier 2 evidence and What Works Clearinghouse standards with reservations, aimed to investigate the efficacy of Exact Path in Norfolk Public Schools. The study estimated the effects of the program for diverse groups of students in order to inform our understanding of the district context and guide instructional decisions. The study found that Exact Path was positively related to Math achievement for students in Grades 3 through 8. The findings suggest that Exact Path could be an effective tool for improving student success in Virginia and similar contexts. These results have implications for educators, policymakers, and researchers interested in improving academic outcomes through personalized learning. |
