Abstract
The present study examined the effectiveness of Khan Academy on math achievement using an action research framework. Three fifth-grade classrooms (N=70), two of which utilized Accelerated Math and the third utilized Khan Academy, were examined. Performance on a test of math achievement was compared across the groups using an Anaylsis of Covariance (ANCOVA). Data regarding student engagement with and teacher perception of Khan Academy were also collected and presented. Results yielded no significant difference between the group that utilized Khan Academy and the other two groups. Discussion on the implications for practice and future research is presented.
