Abstract

The efficacy of personalized math practice during an elementary-school summer camp was investigated using community-based participatory research. Results suggest the frequency of personalized practice correlated with greater improvement in math competence. In some cases, there was no difference between pre-test and post-test on average, demonstrating the improvement’s link to practice.
