Whether you are designing a new program or seeking to improve an existing one, deeply understanding your program’s value proposition, logic model, and the landscape in which your program operates will help to focus your efforts. This analysis and resulting understanding will provide the foundation and context needed to design a cohesive, high-impact tutoring program.
This Playbook describes how Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) can effectively partner with K-12 districts and schools to implement a high-impact tutoring program and why it is worthwhile to do so. First, though, we define what high-impact tutoring is and how it differs from other less effective types of tutoring.
Research shows that high-impact tutoring is unusually effective for accelerating K-12 student learning. In fact it is more effective than other interventions that have been tested and is effective across grade and content levels.
