Scientific Based Research
This scientific based research report, prepared by Educational Support Systems, outlines the research basis for the product design, content and instructional utilization for the netTrekker classic product. The netTrekker classic product and its database of over 180,000 educator-selected online resources that align with each state's academic standards, is the foundation of the new netTrekker d.i. product, a major upgrade to netTrekker classic with numerous features that assist differentiated instruction. This report may be used as supporting documentation for both the netTrekker classic and netTrekker d.i. products.

Educators will be able to use this report as a research reference when preparing No Child Left Behind (NCLB) proposals and plans that incorporate the use of netTrekker d.i. or netTrekker classic as an instructional and learning resource.

The No Child Left Behind Act mandates that all electronic learning resources (ELRs) purchased by school districts be designed with a scientific research basis. The rationale is that NCLB assumes that research-based and evaluated programs will have a higher probability of increasing student academic achievement. This means that educators must have access to research-based ELRs in order to justify the use of NCLB funding for their purchase.

Purpose of Report
