Issues for Consideration |
|
NSF-ATE program officers were interested in widely disseminating the evaluation data collected by the WMU evaluation project. Toward that end, we commissioned
several issue papers in early 2001. An issue is defined here as a topic or situation that requires further consideration to make a decision or reach a conclusion.
Each paper found below is unique. That is, each paper is based on a direction chosen by the author to best illuminate the paper’s issue, and hence, reflects the author’s personal opinion grounded by data (e.g., survey and site visit data). As such, these papers are an eclectic set, varying in tone, content, length, and the amount of judgment and recommendations. However, all are designed to provide information for ATE program illumination and improvement. Summary DocumentWe developed a newsletter-type document, which summarizes findings and recommendations from these papers. We believe this document may be useful to such audiences as ATE collaborators, administration, and other supporters.
