Achievement of Middle School 

Students. 

Frequency: Monthly; Annually. 

Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal 

Gov’t, SEAs or LEAs; Individuals or

Burden: 

Responses: 46,150. 

Burden Hours: 6,487. 

Abstract: This study will address the 

methodological flaws in the existing 

research base on Connected 

Mathematics 1 (CM1) by incorporating 

methodological lessons from the What 

Works Clearinghouse review of CM1, as 

reported in the Intervention Report on 

the Web site, into the current study 

design of Connected Mathematics 2 

(CM2). This will, to our knowledge, be 

the first formal study to look at the 

efficacy of CM2. Understanding the 

effects of curricula like CM2 will 

provide more evidence for ED in 

developing evidence-based approaches 

to mathematics instruction and 

informing parents and schools about 

those approaches. The primary 

respondents in this study will be 6th 

grade math students and their teachers.
