We’ve been thrilled at the overwhelmingly positive response to our publication in the June issue of Nature Human Behavior, one of the world’s leading peer-reviewed scientific journals. Read some of the comments below:
The challenge of mitigating learning loss during the COVID-19 pandemic is crucial, and this paper by Angrist et al. stands out for its efforts to tackle this problem and test an intervention that could potentially be widely implemented.
- Aisha Bradshaw, Senior Editor, Nature Human Behaviour
This is a timely and carefully executed and analysed study. The authors provide evidence of a promising, innovative, replicable, potentially scalable and cost-effective intervention to address the massive educational challenge posed by the COVID-19 pandemic. It is a valuable contribution to the literature, although it remains unclear whether the observed short-term gains persist or wane further into the future.
