MATHstream and UpGrade: Using Rapid, Large-Scale Experimentation for Data-Driven Improvements in a Digital Learning Tool
MATHstream is an innovative digital learning tool from Carnegie Learning, a leading provider of K-12 EdTech solutions, used by over 30,000 middle and high school students in the 2023/24 school year. MATHstream provides supplemental math instruction through an engaging video platform. Throughout the development of this product, our team has been able to leverage UpGrade, a free and open-source A/B testing platform designed specifically with educational use cases in mind, in our approach to learning engineering. Integrating MATHstream with UpGrade allows us to conduct large-scale field experiments directly in the platform, facilitating rapid deployment and data collection for different learning experiences, to better understand what works best to improve learning outcomes.
