Abstract

We evaluated the second and third year’s effect of a model for scaling up successful educational interventions with multiple methodologies and from multiple disciplinary perspectives. The implemented model, TRIAD (Technology-enhanced, Research-based, Instruction, Assessment, and professional Development). had a substantial positive effect on teaching quality and students' mathematics achievement in preschool (reported previously). In kindergarten, the TRIAD Follow-Through group outperformed the control group and the TRIAD (non-follow-through) group, but the latter different was not significant. Both comparisons were significant and the effect sizes greater at first grade. In most cases, there was no evidence that the intervention differed for various subgroups (e.g., SES or LEP status), but there was evidence particularly effective in closing some ethnic and gender gaps.
