Helping students succeed: the research behind...

Adaptive and individualized, ExploreLearning Reflex is the most effective system for mastering basic facts in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division for grades 2 and up. Full of games that students love, Reflex takes students at every level and helps them quickly gain math fact fluency and confidence.

And we’ve got the research to prove not only that math fact fluency plays a critical role in student success, but that Reflex can help students of all levels and abilities attain it.

The research behind Reflex:

ExploreLearning Reflex is predicated on the critical role of fact fluency in elementary school-level mathematics and beyond. Students achieve math fact fluency when they recall the basic facts in all four operations—addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division—accurately and automatically. This fluency helps students free up their working memory to devote it to problem-solving and learning new concepts and skills.

Student success with Reflex:

Math fact fluency is also a significant predictor of performance on standardized tests. And across multiple grade levels and assessments, research shows that students who use Reflex score higher and grow faster than their peers.

Several studies show students achieving ongoing gains and outperforming their peers on NWEA Map math tests

Grade 4 students with regular Reflex usage outperformed their peers on state standardized math tests

Learn how Reflex helps all students succeed:

Reflex “meets each student where they are” and continuously monitors their performance to create the optimal experience for every child. Because of this, Reflex helps students in special populations—including Title I, English language learners, and those with learning disabilities—develop math fact fluency.

Reflex as a Response to Intervention (RTI) strategy

As shown, the benefits of math fact fluency go beyond being able to add, subtract, multiply, and divide quickly. Becoming math fact fluent helps students handle higher math and mathematical reasoning more easily. It also gives them the self-confidence that creates better attitudes toward math and learning in general.
