No evidence on which program design works
Dosage, group size, tutor type and schedule all change results, but few programs track them in a way that shows what worked. Next year’s design ends up based on last year’s habits.

How Pencil Spaces solves it
Pencil Spaces solves part of this today, and the features marked coming soon close more of the gap.
At midyear, a program director compares two cohorts in Dosage Tracking. One received the minutes it was scheduled for and one fell short, so next year’s design starts from evidence, not habit.
- Impact DashboardComing soonThe Impact Dashboard, in development, will show assessment growth from your benchmark data next to the tutoring minutes each student actually received, by student, cohort, school and site.
- Dosage TrackingNewDosage Tracking shows each program’s and cohort’s scheduled minutes next to the minutes actually delivered.

The usual way
Leaders copy a model from a conference talk or a neighboring district and hope it transfers.
A tip you can use today
Pick one design question per term, like two lessons a week against three, and track minutes and growth for both groups.
See it in a live Space.
We’ll walk you through it, shaped around how you teach.
