IXL is used by 1 in 4 students in the US
and in 95 of the top 100 school districts. Educators across the country trust IXL to help
students make learning gains. To measure the impacts of our platform, we’ve built an
extensive and rigorous body of research. IXL’s comprehensive curriculum is based
on best practices from learning science research. We incorporate well-established
methods for learning and teaching, giving students the right instruction, guidance,
and motivation to achieve lasti
ng knowledge. To evaluate the effectiveness of the IXL
platform, we’ve conducted research studies that meet ESSA Tier 1, ESSA Tier 2, and WWC
standards for evidence-based efficacy. Many of these studies have also been conducted, vetted
or peer-reviewed by third-party researchers. This research spans 70,000 schools across more
than 45 states. And these studies consistently show that students who use IXL perform better
on state assessments than students using any other solution. The benefits o
f IXL cut across a
broad range of student groups and school types. Whether it’s English language learners or
students enrolled in special-ed programs, schools located in urban or rural areas,
or Title 1 schools – students in all of these settings have experienced
higher achievement with IXL. Rigorous studies have also validated IXL’s
assessments. These findings reveal that the IXL Diagnostic is an efficient and reliable
measure of student proficiency in math and language arts — and that it
is a strong predictor
of performance on standardized assessments. Research has also provided evidence to support
the use of the IXL Math Universal Screener. Based on these studies, teachers, schools, and districts can feel confident using
IXL to provide differentiated learning, progress tracking, and decision making
that will help each student succeed. Visit ixl.com/research to
