| Περίληψη: | Future Forward is an early elementary literacy program which, through a family-school-community partnership approach, integrates one-on-one tutoring and family engagement to support literacy development at school and at home. In the 2020-21 school year, as part of an Education Innovation and Research (EIR) Mid-Phase grant, the impact of a modified Future Forward on reading achievement was tested with a randomized control study of students in nine schools. In the context of COVID-19, implementation was modified to support virtual tutoring. Although consistent in magnitude with other studies, the modified Future Forward program was not found to have a statistically significant impact on student achievement. Sample size limitations and implementation challenges, both resulting from COVID-19, hindered our ability to measure an impact. Even considering these challenges, we still found evidence that Future Forward had a positive impact on the reading achievement of Black students (0.34 standard deviations, p =0.095) and, even more so, Black male students (0.54 standard deviation, p =0.052). |
