Reflex math Research quotes and tips (from the website!)

Math fact fluency is the quick and effortless (automatic) recall of basic math facts. When students achieve automaticity with these facts, they have attained a level of mastery that enables them to retrieve them from long-term memory without conscious effort or attention.

The Reflex system combines research-proven methods and innovative technology to provide the most effective math fact fluency solution available.

A few of the facts behind Reflex’s success:

1.    The system is based on a fact family approach that builds on and reinforces important mathematical concepts such as the commutative property and the relationship between the operations. When students understand the conceptual connections between facts, their progress to automaticity is accelerated. 

2.    Reflex is highly adaptive and individualized so that students of all ability levels have early and ongoing success. In addition, the system consistently rewards students for both their effort and progress toward automaticity. They come to understand that if they are willing to put in the work, they really can succeed in math. 

3.    Reflex fluency development games are different. Unlike typical math fact games, they require students to engage in increasingly complex and fast-paced decision making. Once students have developed the ability to fluently answer math facts while simultaneously achieving game objectives, you can be confident that they will be able to do the same while learning new math concepts and procedures in your classroom.

4.    Reflex is continually improving based on detailed analysis of student response patterns. Hundreds of thousands of students have become fluent with tens of millions of new facts and Explore Learning's researchers continuously comb that data to uncover opportunities to further optimize the system. Today's Reflex is more effective than yesterday's, and tomorrow's will be better still. 

‘The kids are making tremendous, measurable progress while they are enhancing their fluency. However, not only are their skills increasing, but also their self-esteem!!! They are SO PROUD of what they are doing with Reflex Math”

“As a math specialist, I saw the excitement as students engaged in answering math facts with more confidence than they had just weeks ago!”
