Research Studies

Growth and development of your child is at the heart of every program in the FasTrack® Learning System. One way we record this is through accurate documentation regarding the achievement of your young learner’s milestones.

The purposes of this research is to inform:

• parents regarding continued progress made by our students
• future curriculum design
• professional training of our instructors.

Although all of our programs are rooted in strong educational research, several of our program offerings have confirmed their impact through the scrutiny of rigorous data collection and analysis:

Research conducted by Drs. Michelle Anthony and Reyna Lindert in conjunction with the University of California at Berkley tested the theory of language growth and acquisition for babies 6 months-2 years old. The research showed that if children were exposed to the use of sign language at an early age, then by the time they were ready to speak; their vocabulary was larger than those students who were not exposed to the use of signs. Children who used signs had double the number of spoken words than peers who did not use signing.
