Measuring the Impact of engage2learn Coaching on Reading & Math Scores

New third-party research shows the efficacy of job-embedded professional learning & talent development from engage2learn on student achievement.

engage2learn recently hired Learning Experience Design (LXD) Research, a third-party independent evaluator, to analyze and correlate educator growth collected in GroweLab and to student NWEA MAP Growth data collected during the 2021-2022 school year. The goal was to measure how engage2learn coaching and support contributed to the implementation of instructional best practices, and if those best practices impacted student outcomes.

The study was designed to provide ESSA Level 3 Promising Evidence on the impact of engage2learn coaching and support interventions on student achievement and found that there is a statistically significant impact on both reading and math student growth.
