Addendum to Effectiveness of Cognitive Tutor Algebra I at Scale

John F. Pane, Beth Ann Griffin, Daniel F. McCaffrey, Rita T. Karam

Published May 30, 2014

This addendum to previously published results presents alternative analyses of data from large-scale effectiveness studies of Cognitive Tutor Algebra I in middle schools and high schools. These alternative analyses produce results that are substantively the same as previously reported. We find a significant positive effect of .21 standard deviation units for high school students in the second year of the study.
