Brazilian Research Demonstrates Mind Lab’s Educational Edge
During the second semesters of 2009 and 2010, the prestigious Institute of Evaluation and Educational Development (INADE) had been conducting a study to evaluate Mind Lab’s impact on fifth grade students’ proficiency in Mathematics and Portuguese.
Approximately 1,000 fifth graders from 15 different private and public schools in Brazil participated in the 2009 study, learning Mind Lab lessons over 3 months, 1 hour per week. The 2010 study already included approximately 5,000 students.
The 2009 results demonstrated a significant improvement in both math and Portuguese, but the 2010 results absolutely astonished Mrs. Regina Cansado, INADE’s President.
Summaries of the 2009/10 studies are attached:
