Our program matches students with certified educators who deliver 1:1 and small group tutoring in reading, math, and test preparation.
Upon deeper review, however, these findings leave room for optimism. First, researchers found that lower-cost virtual tutoring models — approximately $1,200/student — were just as impactful as in-person models at $2,000/student, suggesting that tutoring can be less expensive without sacrificing impact.
Second, these findings highlight what's possible when students receivetutoring that comes closer to the definition of "high-impact." For example, the effect of tutoring was largest — about 3.5 months of learning — in a New Mexico district where students received more than 2,000 minutes of tutoring per year. Across all districts in the study, this amount most closely aligned with the recommendations for implementing a high-impact model.
A new collaboration between Stanford’s SCALE and OpenAI, the creator of ChatGPT, strives to better understand how students and teachers use the popular AI platform and how it impacts learning
Education is one of the fastest-growing use cases of AI products. Students log on for writing assistance, brainstorming, image creation, and more. Teachers tap into tools like attendance trackers, get curriculum support to design learning materials, and much more.
Yet despite the rapid growth – and potential – a substantial gap remains in knowledge about the efficacy of these tools to support learning.
A new research project from the Generative AI for Education Hub at SCALE, an initiative of the Stanford Accelerator for Learning, aims to help fill that gap by studying how ChatGPT is used in K-12 education. In particular, the research will examine how secondary level teachers and students use ChatGPT.
In this study, we analyze the contracts between districts and vendors of instructional services and products to understand how relationships between these parties are structured. We compare three types of contracts: those developed with the support of SEF’s Outcomes-Based Contracting (OBC) Cohort program, those between the same districts and other vendors without SEF support, and those involving the same vendors but with other districts that did not receive SEF assistance. During the cohort experience, participating districts received guidance from SEF’s Center for Outcomes-Based Contracting. The total cost of hosting each district in the cohort was $30,000, of which districts contributed $15,000, with the remaining expenses covered by SEF through philanthropic funding. We use the emerging OBC framework as a baseline to understand the extent to which traditional district–vendor contracts already incorporate elements of the OBC approach and other information pertinent to vendor quality and alignment.
“We have a lot of work to do,” Hudson said, which is why the 43,500-student district has zeroed in on providing high-impact tutoring.
Joined by Stanford University’s Nancy Waymack, Soto and Hudson shared what Portland has learned from its efforts during a July 12 session at UNITED, the National Conference on School Leadership.
High-impact tutoring is a data-driven service that is embedded into the school day and uses consistent, well-supported tutors, said Waymack, director of research, partnerships and policy for Stanford University’s National Student Support Accelerator. The tutors use high-quality instructional materials and hold sessions at least three times a week in small groups of no more than four students, she said.
Chapter One provides a high-impact tutoring model that builds early literacy foundational skills using a systematic and explicit phonics model. It is directly aligned to the Science of Reading and Common Core reading standards as the curriculum and instruction focuses on phonics, phonemic awareness, word recognition, fluency, and comprehension. Our research-based solution has been tested through 2 RCTs that have qualified our program for an ESSA Tier 1 rating.
UI's high-impact tutoring program follows an evidence-based model designed to boost K-12 students' academic achievement in core content areas. UI instructors work with assigned small groups of students to advance equitable learning recovery. The most significant impact in this model is found when UI instructors are embedded into the school schedule to deliver instruction to groups of three students (or less) for at least 30 minutes per session 3-5 times a week. The consistent relationship between students and instructors is critical to building trust and elevating learning.

This study provides compelling evidence that tutoring can do more than boost test scores; it can actually get students back in the classroom. On average, students were 1.2 percentage points less likely to be absent on days when they were scheduled to receive tutoring, suggesting that they are motivated to participate in tutoring. This impact was even greater for middle schoolers and students who’d missed more than 30% of school days the prior year. The study also found that the design matters: tutoring only improved attendance when it combined at least two evidence-based features like small groups, frequent sessions, and in-school delivery.

A central challenge facing education leaders is allocating limited resources in pursuit of their priorities. Three of their critical resources are time, money, and people. A school's master schedule reflects the allocation of all three of these critical resources and ultimately determines the educational opportunities available to students. A school’s schedule dictates who will be teaching them, what they will be learning, where this learning will take place, and how much instruction they will receive.
Over the past three school years, districts and states have worked to recover the academic ground they lost over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic and chip away at stubborn gaps in academic performance. Many turned to high-impact tutoring, a research-based approach to providing individualized instruction to students. In the School Pulse Panel Survey in October, 2024, 78% of responding schools reported having some type of tutoring for students and 37% reported offering high-dosage tutoring or what we refer to as high-impact tutoring.
