Abstract

This paper presents a case study review of a public school's effort to improve student math achievement scores. The implementation process reviewed in this case study occurred in a public school that had become increasingly concerned about its elementary students' low math scores on in-class assessments and standardized tests. The public school's leadership team in this case study was interested in focusing on providing digital instructional support for all students, and in specifically targeting students needing math intervention. The digital instructional support was to be used to complement, rather than replace teachers' lesson plans and classroom activities. A K-5th grade math instructional assistant software program was selected to support and complement classroom instruction. The initial results of the web-based instructional assistant program on improving student math achievement appear to be promising. Student growth measures and reflections on initiating, developing and monitoring the math instructional support program are presented and discussed.
