Doss, Christopher; Fahle, Erin M.; Loeb, Susanna; York, Benjamin N. – Stanford Center for Education Policy Analysis, 2017
Recent studies show that texting-based interventions can produce educational benefits in children across a range of ages. We study the effects of a text-based program for kindergarten parents, distinguishing a general program from one that adds differentiation and personalization based on the child's developmental level. Children in the…

For example, children were shown a dog, asked…
