Overview of feature

Gain clarity on how Newsela is being used in alignment with the recommended usage requirements outlined in our efficacy studies. Access the in-product usage reporting to see which schools and classrooms are using Newsela. See the number assignments created, write prompts completed, quizzes submitted, and more.

Multiple ESSA Tier II studies have shown that weekly Newsela use leads to accelerated learning and achievement gains in ELA and social studies by reading two articles a week and completing the quiz. Consult your usage reports to ensure your school or district is using Newsela with frequency for maximum impact on students.
