Education Market Research Case Study
Objectives
Our education market research company partnered with an organization focused on education development and a major TV network to conduct an educational assessment study on the impact of learning media, specifically tablets, on 4 and 5-year-old children. The objective was to recruit 454 families across five U.S. cities (New York, NY; Phoenix, AZ; Minneapolis, MN; San Francisco, CA; Boston, MA) for an 8-week controlled usage test.
Approach
The study involved two sessions, with families completing identical assessments and surveys before and after the children used tablets for learning. The recruitment process included targeted outreach through Facebook and email lists, resulting in 98% show rates for both sessions. Participants received a $25 incentive after the opening session and an additional $100 after the closing session, along with keeping the tablet used in the study. The strategic follow-up process ensured high participant engagement and completion of the 8-week assessment.
