Before
We will evaluate the effectiveness of a school-based intervention designed to enhance multiple cognitive and higher order reasoning skills of highly disadvantaged children. The intervention began in October 2022 and is scheduled to conclude in April 2025, spanning two academic years from grade 2 to grade 3. It incorporates structured activities and materials aimed at improving pattern recognition, working memory, categorization and analogical reasoning. The program aims to improve children’s ability to learn the regular curriculum more effectively and to develop critical thinking, with the expectation of fostering lasting academic and socio-cognitive benefits. The trial covers a total of 132 primary schools in two provinces, Gaziantep and Sirnak in Southeast Turkiye, with 67 schools assigned to the program, 65 remain in control. The total sample size is approximately 14,000 students.
