Abstract

From Here to There: Elementary (FH2T-E), an interactive math intervention, was evaluated for effects on algebraic readiness in first-grade students (N=23). Both boys and girls demonstrated significant improvement with FH2T-E either on iPad or laptop (0.33 performance effect size). These pilot results support future large-scale studies.
