If you are thinking seriously about program evaluation, whether for LSRI VI or otherwise, this session is for you. The session includes explanations, examples, and question/answer opportunities for such issues as assembling a research team; defining research questions; designing an appropriate methodological approach; securing university approval; working with teachers, schools, or districts; describing your program; planning for data collection; budgeting; and accessing assistance from the NWP Research and Evaluation Unit. We encourage participation of site teams of at least two people.
