Assistant Professor Roderick Rose and a colleague from Ohio State have a new paper published in the Journal of Educational Research that evaluates the long-term effects of a teaching relevance intervention, CareerStart, given in middle schools. Specifically they looked at the effect of this randomly-assigned middle school intervention on the risk of dropout from high school. The authors demonstrate that it reduces the risk of dropout by 23%.
