MathFacts in a Flash Use
Leads to Dramatic Gains

A growing body of research shows that dramatic improvement in math achievement occurs when students develop automatic recall of math facts through appropriate practice. And no other tool provides that practice as effectively as MathFacts in a Flash.

Figure 1 (below) shows annual pre-post growth for students actively using MathFacts in a Flash. Actual rates of growth (in STAR Math scaled scores) by grade are presented in comparison to expected rates of growth. Expected growth was determined by using Growth Norms for STAR Math, which are average weekly growth rates based on students’ starting pretest percentile rank. Growth Norms were determined based on a national math achievement database of 338,000 students.

Figure 1
Students classified as active MathFacts in a Flash users demonstrated more than double
the expected growth rate of those not using the software over the same period of time.


Figure 2 (below) shows average spring percentile rank scores for 26,819 U.S. students meeting grade-level benchmarks using MathFacts in a Flash. As shown in the chart, students who met the benchmarks in grades 2 through 5 demonstrated high achievement compared to national norms. In addition, students who mastered the benchmarks experienced average fall to spring gains of +13.5 percentile rank points on the nationally normed STAR Math test.
