Lauer, Motoko Akiba, Stephanie B. Wilkerson, Helen S. Apthorp, David Snow, & Mya Martin-Glenn | | Target Audience | Administrators, policymakers, and researchers | | Ways to Use this Product | As a resource for understanding the effectiveness of specific OST strategies for low-achieving students | Key Ideas | Research to date has painted a mixed picture of the effectiveness of out-of-school-time strategies (OST). To provide a closer examination of which OST strategies work and which do not, McREL researchers have analyzed all rigorous research conducted since 1984 on the impact of OST strategies in improving the reading and mathematics achievement of low-achieving or at-risk students. | How to Get this Product | Research Report: View/Download the PDF
