Literacy Collaborative Program Evaluation at the National Level
Literacy Collaborative program evaluation at the national level was revised in 2004-2005. The revised design was created in order to both ensure high quality data for scientifically based research and to provide support to Literacy Collaborative schools in their school-level evaluation efforts. The new four-pronged approach consists of the following:
- A portfolio of rigorous evaluation studies demonstrating the effectiveness of Literacy Collaborative across a variety of settings
- A national relational database of Literacy Collaborative schools to be used to facilitate internal research and evaluation studies
- A set of program evaluation tools that lend support to schools and districts as they develop their evaluation plans and analyze and present their data to stakeholders
- A website that provides easy access to the above program evaluation tools and to research and evaluation studies on Literacy Collaborative
