Play to Learn: The Impact of Technology on Students’ Math Performance
This paper analyzes the impact of technology use on student math learning using experimental data from Brazil. The technology is a software tool designed for elementary school students to learn and practice arithmetic. Contrary to most interventions in which computer-aided instruction extends the school day, students played the game during class time for about 2 months. First, second, and third graders who used the software increased their score on a math test by 0.56σ in the short term (just after the intervention) and by 0.17σ in the medium term (1 year after the end of the intervention).
期刊介绍:
Journal of Human Capital is dedicated to human capital and its expanding economic and social roles in the knowledge economy. Developed in response to the central role human capital plays in determining the production, allocation, and distribution of economic resources and in supporting long-term economic growth, JHC is a forum for theoretical and empirical work on human capital—broadly defined to include education, health, entrepreneurship, and intellectual and social capital—and related public policy analyses. JHC encompasses microeconomic, macroeconomic, and international economic perspectives on the theme of human capital. The journal offers a platform for discussion of topics ranging from education, labor, health, and family economics.
