Year 2 Activities |
|
- The data gathered from all four focus groups is currently being analyzed and evaluated.
Draft results will be sent to session participants for review and commentary of high-level
themes and key points.
|
|
- Once analyzed for patterns and recommendations, the data will be converted to a
document emphasizing significant factors in exemplary partnerships and implications
for teaching and learning.
|
|
- The findings will be disseminated throughout the year at local, regional, and
national conferences for a variety of educator audiences.
|
|
- The project advisory board is developing a broader dissemination plan for the
outcomes, to include business and government stakeholders.
