Exploring Heterogeneity in Mathematics Intervention Effects Using Meta-Analysis

AIR conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to examine the heterogeneity in mathematics intervention effects by synthesizing 25 years of randomized experiments of interventions designed to improve mathematics achievement in Grades K-12. The goal of this project was to better understand the conditions and contexts for why one study may find that a mathematics intervention works while another study on the same intervention may not find that it works.
