Our Commitment to Research
Scientifically based research plays a critical role in helping social scientists learn information that can inform educational policy. LeapFrog SchoolHouse is committed to conducting gold-standard scientifically based research to demonstrate academic learning gains for all children. At LeapFrog SchoolHouse, all of our programs are based on the latest empirical and theoretical research about how children learn most effectively. The foundation of our educational programs is examined in conjunction with the findings from our scientifically based validity and efficacy research. Our research department adheres to the United States Department of Education's What Works Clearinghouse (WWC, http://w-w-c.org/), which calls for research to be systematic, rigorous and of open design (inviting peers and professionals to examine our methodology and raw data).
