Research & Evaluation
Research Summary
One peer-reviewed article found the Nessy intervention supported students in the development of literacy skills and improvement in reading and spelling skills. However, no additional peer-reviewed research was found. Therefore, there is insufficient evidence to support the efficacy of Nessy at this time.
