How hard is it to get tutoring right AT SCALE? Evidence suggests it is pretty difficult, but I'd argue a worthwhile effort to at least try (as we learned a lot from pandemic efforts).

Relatedly, we/@caldercenter.bsky.social found evidence that tutoring can work (more in math than ELA) but the effects are often smaller than having kids go to summer school + the effects of tutoring tend to be less consistent across the districts we worked with: caldercenter.org/sites/defaul...

All about tutoring on this week's Gadfly. @lizcohen12.bsky.social makes good points about trying tutoring as a reform (lots of people willing to tutor/help!), but it's also was proven tough to implement tutoring well at scale. 👇

As more elementary schools embrace departmentalization, what does it mean for student learning?

New @hechingerreport.org article highlights CALDER study by @brbackes.bsky.social, James Cowan, & @cedr.bsky.social on the effects of departmentalization in MA. 👇
