Education Topics
Teachers matter. Nothing in a school day is more important for student achievement than the skills of teachers. Mathematica has a long history of studying how teachers are prepared for, supported, and perform in the classroom. Principals have also been shown to have an important influence on student achievement. Mathematica is studying intensive supports for principals and how they affect school, teacher, and student outcomes.

Project
What Works Clearinghouse Guides to Research that Assists Practitioners in Education (WWC-GRAPE)
The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) collects, reviews, and reports on studies of education interventions. We develop publications and resources for the WWC across many topics in education, all designed to help practitioners find what works for their classrooms and schools and promote rigorous standards in education research.
