Their meta-analysis of the effects of educational app use on children's literacy and math skills found that well-designed apps can make a positive difference when it comes to constrained skills like number recognition or times tables in math, or letter sounds in literacy.
Because they were all over the place, we have to go beyond the average effect and say, OK, for whom does the app work? Under what conditions? On what types of measures? And I think those are the questions that researchers, policymakers, school leaders, teachers and principals should be asking.
