Abstract

The study, Mathematical Achievement in Reduced Classes, evaluated qualitative data on how class size effects student achievement in math. The information was collected by interview­ing teachers on their experiences of teaching multiplication in a reduced or regular class size. Two groups of teachers were assigned. Group (A) teachers teach in a reduced class size. Group (B) teachers teach in a regular size class. The data suggested that student achievement increases in a reduced class size. The results were based on teacher's observations not on standardized tests scores
