DreamBox Reading Park Logic Model: ESSA Evidence Level IV

Discovery Education engaged LearnPlatform by Instructure, a third-party edtech research company, to develop a logic model for DreamBox Reading Park. LearnPlatform by instructure designed the logic model to satisfy Level IV requirements (Demonstrates a Rationale) according to the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA).

To continue building evidence of effectiveness and to examine the proposed relationships in the logic model, Discovery Education plans to conduct an evaluation to determine the extent the Reading Park program produces the desired outcomes for grades K-2. Specifically, Discovery Education has plans to begin an ESSA Level III study.

Because of the development of the logic model and the plan for an ESSA Level III study, DreamBox Reading Park by Discovery Education meets Tier IV evidence requirements in compliance with ESSA.
