A proven approach to accelerate and improve math fluency
Mathematical fluency gives children the ability to recall and apply knowledge rapidly and accurately. It is a crucial building block and the foundation for later learning. Impact studies are central to Sumdog’s mission and help to guide our pedagogy and refine the program.
Sumdog almost doubles children’s fluency progress
This study set out to investigate whether using Sumdog on a regular basis has an impact on students’ mathematical fluency. The findings revealed that the progress made by regular Sumdog users was almost double that of non-regular users giving them a 6 month advantage over their peers.
The Education Endowment Foundation (EEF) describes an effect size of this magnitude as “high impact”; equivalent to a six-month advantage.
Sumdog is available for ALL schools to try for FREE. See for yourself the impact Sumdog could have in your school.
Fostering math fluency with the use of Edtech
Watch our video to hear Dr Sara Humphries share how the study was carried out, and the significance of the findings. You can download a summary of the findings below, and also find the full research paper published in the Impact Journal of the Chartered College of Teaching.
We’ve created a parent-version of the study for you to send home.
It explains the results of the study and how families can support children’s learning at home.
How Sumdog can impact learning in your school
Stay in control of learning
Choose the topics that each child practices or group students by skills.
You can set challenges to be completed in class or for homework.
Support personalised learning
Track individual progress against the standards.
Save valuable teaching time
Use custom assessments to quickly identify gaps so you can target intervention, and get results immediately with our auto-marking feature.
“I’d recommend Sumdog as a fun way to present mathematics to children without them even realising that they are practising their skills! Those children who have used Sumdog on a regular basis have made more progress than those who didn’t.”
