The Knowledge is Power Program (KIPP) is employed in 30-some schools around the US. I’ve perused the Web site briefly and read two other discussions of it. According to the Web site, the program is predicated on “five pillars”: high expectations, choice and commitment, more time, power to lead, and focus on results, but I haven’t been able to locate data on outcomes. None of those say much about instruction. I’m hoping that this is one of the approaches using effective instructional practices, but it’s hard to tell.
If anyone has first-hand information, please let us know.
