New ST Math Research Reveals Significant Academic Gains for Texas Students Over Five Years
ST Math Research Reveals Significant Academic Improvements
In a recent release, MIND Education, renowned for its innovative approach to mathematics instruction, shared valuable findings from two studies conducted in Texas. This research illustrates a dramatic enhancement in academic performance among elementary and middle school students utilizing the ST Math program, a neuroscience-driven instructional tool.
Overview of the Research
The two key studies include the annual Texas Education Agency (TEA) Longitudinal Study and the Matched Comparison Study (MSC). Together, they analyzed data from more than 187,000 students, making this one of the most extensive examinations of visual math learning in action.
Annual TEA Longitudinal Study (Grades 3–5)
The TEA Longitudinal Study offers pivotal insights into the long-term efficacy of ST Math throughout elementary education. For the fifth consecutive year, it has shown positive results on Texas's statewide assessment, STAAR, indicating consistent growth in math performance across various student subgroups. Notably, among students who participated in ST Math for all three years, only 2.3% of them remained at the lowest
