Aprendiendo Project

Research Activity

We tested the usability of our program and parent engagement with our materials through online polls, WhatsApp communications, interviews and focus groups.

Impact

‘Parents’ feedback revealed several aspects of the project that empowered families to help their children in mathematics, including connecting by using familiar apps like WhatsApp, presenting information with multiple modalities, providing short, easy-to-use activities, and using materials available at home.
