WestEd and Air Tutors invite educators and district leaders to join a webinar to learn about high-dosage tutoring and how to join a study measuring the tutoring program’s impact.
High-dosage tutoring has the potential to address learning loss by accelerating student learning. This webinar will share information about what makes an effective high-dosage tutoring program and how best to evaluate its impacts. During the session, attendees will also learn about an opportunity to participate in an upcoming WestEd study that will assess the impact of Air Tutors high-dosage math tutoring on student learning.
About the study: WestEd will measure the tutoring program’s impact on students’ math achievement through an RCT study that is designed for students in Grades 4–6.
WestEd is currently seeking districts to participate in the study. Students who participate in the study will receive small group online instruction from tutors in standards-based math content during the school day. Join the webinar for more information!
