Allensworth, Elaine; Cashdollar, Sarah; Gwynne, Julia – Grantee Submission, 2021
Existing literature on the impact of Common Core State Standards in Math has shown little benefit, but has not examined variation in outcomes based on implementation strategies, student subgroups, or outcomes other than test scores. We use a difference-in-differences approach with school fixed effects to compare outcomes in pre- and post-standards…

Doabler, Christian T.; Clarke, Ben; Kosty, Derek; Fien, Hank; Smolkowski, Keith; Liu, Meijia; Baker, Scott K. – Grantee Submission, 2021
Instructional interactions that occur between teachers and students around foundational mathematics topics are critical for supporting mathematical proficiency among students with mathematics learning disabilities (MLD). This study investigated whether the initial mathematics skill of 880 kindergarten students at risk for MLD predicted the…

Allensworth, Elaine; Cashdollar, Sarah; Cassata, Amy – Grantee Submission, 2022
The Common Core State Standards in Mathematics and Next Generation Science Standards encourage substantial shifts in teaching, but how to enact change is not specified. This mixed-methods exploratory study shows how different implementation supports were related to teachers' use of standards-aligned instructional practices in the Chicago Public…

Shanley, Lina; Strand Cary, Mari; Turtura, Jessica; Clarke, Ben; Sutherland, Marah; Pilger, Marissa – Grantee Submission, 2019
Students who demonstrate mathematics difficulties in the early grades are at risk for poor educational outcomes. Fortunately, strategic early mathematics intervention programs can improve academic outcomes for students with mathematics difficulties, and instructional technology has demonstrated promise in delivering targeted and individualized…

Richland, Lindsey Engle; Begolli, Kreshnik Nasi – Grantee Submission, 2016
Linking ideas, concepts, and disciplinary content is an underused yet effective educational strategy for fostering students' higher order thinking. A body of psychological research on analogical reasoning can inform the challenge of encouraging higher order thinking in schools. We focus in particular on the teaching of mathematics and highlight…

Resnick, Ilyse; Verdine, Brian; Golinkoff, Roberta; Hirsh-Pasek, Kathy – Grantee Submission, 2016
Preschoolers' experiences with shapes are important because geometry is foundational to aspects of mathematics and it is now part of the Common Core for school-readiness. Exposure to shapes also provides experiences that are key to developing spatial thinking more broadly. Yet achieving a strong conceptual understanding of geometric categories can…
