How do students score on achievement tests?
We have wonderful letters from individuals and teachers who have used the program and have had excellent results. We don’t keep track of test results, or teach to the test, though. Most curricula are based around tests. As achievement tests change so the curricula. We believe this is the tail wagging the dog! Math·U·See presents math in a logical sequence regardless of the latest standardized test. Because of this, there will be times when Math·U·See students won’t score as well because we haven’t followed the tests’ sequence. But in the long run, MUS kids will be much better off because they will not only know how to do math, they will understand it as well.
