Abstract: Edmentum offers a personalized learning platform called Exact Path. This quasi-experimental study, designed to meet ESSA Tier 2 evidence and What Works Clearinghouse standards with reservations, aimed to assess the efficacy of Exact Path in a district from the Midwestern United States. The goal was to provide specific recommendations to educators within the district and inform the broader community of policymakers and practitioners about the potential benefits of personalized learning for enhancing student academic achievement. The study found that the use of Exact Path was positively related to Reading achievement in NWEA MAP tests, after controlling for students' prior test scores and their socioeconomic status. These findings suggest that Exact Path could be an effective tool for improving student success in this district and potentially other similar contexts. Therefore, these results may have important implications for educators, policymakers, and researchers interested in improving student outcomes through personalized learning.
