Proven Results of ABC's Resources
"I had a brand new teacher who did a little action research project. She used the American Book Company fourth-grade social studies book with three groups of students, and another book with two other groups of students. Ninety percent of the students who were using the American Book Company book passed—many more than in the other groups."
Since American Book Company started producing state-specific test preparation resources in 1996, we have received an enormous amount of unsolicited feedback on how our materials are helping students. Because of the amount of positive feedback and growing desire for statistical proof of our books' success from customers, American Book Company decided to have a Validation Study performed by Lois Eskin Associates, an independent consulting firm in 2006 which focused on our high school titles. We had another independent study performed in 2010 to examine the effectiveness of our lower grade titles.
These studies consist of testimonies from educators and parents who have used our materials as well as district data for each school to give the scores a demographic context. Please select a link below to view each of our Validation Studies.
