ST Math's visual, spatial-temporal approach makes the program accessible to more learners.
Third Party Validation
A 2019 WestEd study found schools that consistently used ST Math outgrew similar schools in statewide rank by 14 percentile points.†
"Why can't we just teach math the way I learned it?"
The volume of work often necessitates computers who can perform the routine machine operations with great speed, but who need not have much logical insight into what the results should be...
Memo: "Computing Group Organizations and Practices at NACA" April 24th 1942
The old way of teaching math was to make you do it like a machine...
The new way is to understand it so you can build the machines!
What are students saying about ST Math?
JiJi helps me keep trying. When I make mistakes, I learn from it.
Dear JiJi—you’re the best. Your program is amazing.
Thank you for helping me in math. I really like math. It’s so fun.
Students who play ST Math have higher mathematics self-beliefs
ST Math's impact on student self-beliefs is strongest for those students who had lower mathematics achievement scores
ST Math operates through students' self-belief to positively influence achievement
