New Normal in Early Elementary Mathematics Learning: Part III – Learning from Variation in Grade 3
This study is the final installment of a three-part series in which Hiroyuki Yamada, a researcher with Curriculum Associates, first developed a measure of learning growth for students entering first grade in fall 2021 from a national sample of over 6,000 schools using Curriculum Associates’ i-Ready Diagnostic for Mathematics, a web-based adaptive interim assessment tool designed to measure four domains of mathematical skills. He then examined variations in learning growth across schools, focusing on commonly measured school attributes that may relate to learning growth.
