The Research Base of Ignite! Learning Products In the Ignite! Learning Research Basis, Dr. Rob Foshay details how the design of the Ignite! curriculum employs research-based best practices and brain-based learning theory.
Effects of Ignite! Curriculum at Title I Campuses This study was conducted at a large urban school district that has a high concentration of Title I campuses with students from a variety of ethnic backgrounds. 2007 and 2008 test scores of the Stanford Achievement Test, 10th Edition (SAT-10), were analyzed for campuses using the Ignite! curriculum as well those not using the Ignite! curriculum. The results show that 47% of campuses using Ignite! Science increased their test scores, and 55% of campuses using Ignite! Social Studies increased their test scores. Schools with increased scores saw gains of 1.9 to 2.2 points from 2007 to 2008. Research shows that an average gain of 1 or 2 points in one year is an educationally significant finding. Additionally, statistically significant increases in test scores were found at 6th & 8th grade science and at 8th grade in social studies as demonstrated by the independent t-tests.

During the 2004-2005 school year, this School District partnered with Ignite! Learning to examine the effectiveness of social studies learning as a result of student utilization of the Ignite! Early American History software program to augment textbook and lecture materials for seventh grade middle school history students.
Dr. C. Jayne Brahler partnered with Ignite! Learning to review statewide Early American History criterion-referenced test scores for a sample of students tested in 2003-04 and in 2004-05. Dr. Brahler analyzed the performance of students in seven Texas school districts who met standard and the percentage of students who scored in the commended performance level.
