Abstract

Despite growing interest in personalized learning, empirical evidence regarding its effectiveness remains sparse. This research, a quasi-experimental study designed to meet ESSA Tier 2 evidence and What Works Clearinghouse standards with reservations, aimed to investigate the efficacy of Exact Path, a personalized learning platform. The study sample was from a diverse school district in Virginia. The study estimated effects of the program across various learner profiles, considering factors such as gender, ethnicity, demographic backgrounds, Individualized Education Program (IEP) and English learner (EL) status. The findings suggest that Exact Path could be an effective tool for improving student success in Virginia and similar contexts. These results have implications for educators, policymakers, and researchers interested in improving academic outcomes through personalized learning.
