Domain-specific

• External Validity
  • Pratham's balsakhi programme — a remedial pull-out in which a community tutor withdrew the weakest primary pupils from class for targeted instruction in basic literacy and numeracy — raised test scores by about 0.28 standard deviations in randomized evaluations in the Indian cities of Vadodara and Mumbai, a gain that had faded to roughly 0.10 standard deviations a year after the programme ended
