Evidence of 麻豆视频's impact
We seek to accelerate organizational progress and continuous improvement by leading innovative research and evaluation work that advances ongoing learning, informs our practice and builds our evidence of impact.
Learn moreOur goal is to effectively support students and adults who work in schools
Through our research and evaluation work, we aim to understand how to create learning environments and educational systems that accelerate educational opportunity by enabling all students to reach their full potential. We do so by exploring our outcomes on multiple levels:
- our impact on systems, schools and students
- the effectiveness of our practices
- our impact on our AmeriCorps members and alumni and the communities we serve
The studies and reports highlighted below are produced by independent research organizations and researchers. Collectively, they cover a wide range of impact and implementation of 麻豆视频鈥檚 holistic services, demonstrate evidence of 麻豆视频鈥檚 impact in areas like supporting improvements on state tests, improving students鈥 interpersonal skills, reducing early warning indicators, such as chronic absenteeism, and shedding light on how to accelerate student success in under-resourced schools.

Supporting students’ interpersonal development
Our most recent research aims to understand the relationships between students’ interpersonal development and academic outcomes. By understanding and exploring 麻豆视频’s effect in schools, we also aim to understand how our student success coach model can be replicated across a number of programs.
As a part of this work:
- 麻豆视频 partnered with International Futures (iF) to identify the key components of a K-12 student success coaching (SSC) program
- Funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Everyone Graduates Center at Johns Hopkins University conducted two analyses to understand the relationship between students academic outcomes and interpersonal skill development, and to explore 麻豆视频’s effect in schools.
We believe that student success coaches are a key element in healthy school ecosystems and bring much needed additional capacity into under-resourced schools. Learn more about how student success coaching helps further student learning and positive school environments.
