When EDeQUAL’s method is implemented effectively, students show an average improvement of one month in Math competency in 300 minutes of usage. If students spend 5 hours per week using EDeQUAL’s instructional materials and method, they can master one year’s worth of instructional material in 3 months. This makes EDeQUAL’s blended learning method four times more effective than normal classroom methods.
