Charlotte, NC. (Thursday, September 28, 2023) 鈥� Worldwide edtech leader 扒哥黑料 today announced that two of its award-winning digital services have been certified as meeting the rigorous, evidence-based standards set forth in the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA). 扒哥黑料鈥檚 Science Techbook has achieved ESSA Tier III and Tier IV certification and 扒哥黑料 Experience has achieved Tier IV certification. 鈥�听
扒哥黑料鈥檚 innovative Science Techbook is an evidence-based, award-winning, comprehensive K-12 science curriculum that brings the excitement of science to life. Students explore the marvels of the natural world through an immersive, phenomena-based science curriculum that includes hands-on learning opportunities, interactive content, and time-saving teaching and assessment tools.听
Multiple studies show that regular use of Science Techbook in the classroom has many positive academic results for educators and students across a variety of districts and populations in the United States. For example, in an independent study with Arizona鈥檚 Sahuarita Unified School District, a third party evaluated 扒哥黑料鈥檚 impact and found that the use of Science Techbook resulted in increased science, math, and reading proficiency in grades 3-8. In the second study, a correlation was found between frequency and depth of use of Science Techbook and student achievement in science in grades 6 and 7.听
Experience, 扒哥黑料鈥檚 PreK-12 learning platform, engages students with real-world content and multi-modal instruction, supports teachers with intuitive teaching tools, and ensures high-quality instruction with cross-curricular strategies鈥� delivering a unified classroom experience that prepares learners for tomorrow.听
Use of 扒哥黑料 贰虫辫别谤颈别苍肠别鈥檚 curricular resources has improved academic outcomes across the country for students overall, especially for racial and ethnic minorities and students impacted by poverty, disabilities, and limited English proficiency. Research also indicates that students who have regular access to 扒哥黑料 resources have higher attendance rates and outpace their peers on state assessments. In a study conducted in Texas, 73% of students with high usage of Experience met state benchmarks, compared to 30% of low-use students, and another study conducted in Tennessee found that 66% of high-use students met reading benchmarks and 70% met math benchmarks, compared to 50% of low-use students meeting benchmarks for both.
