SGER--A Collaborative, Multi-site, Student Outcomes Study bySeven SWEPTs

小行星9709717 哥伦比亚大学提议设计一项主要成果研究，领导一个为K-12教师提供实验室经验的公共和私营机构联盟。 虽然通过实验室经验提高教师是普遍的，并热情支持许多专业人士，这种经验的影响的证据主要是主观的自我报告，由那些组织的经验或教师参与者。 在这种情况下，是否能够在获得适当数据的情况下进行强有力的、以结果为导向的评价研究，这是一个猜测的问题。 这项初步研究将确定可以获得哪些信息，以及如何从各种类型的教师培训机构收集其他数据。

9709717 Silverstein Columbia University proposes to design a major outcomes study, heading a coalition of public and private institutions that provide laboratory experiences for K-12 teachers. While enhancement of teachers through laboratory experiences is widespread and enthusiastically backed by many professionals, the evidence of impact of such experiences is primarily subjective self-reports by those organizing the experiences or by teacher participants. Whether strong, outcome-oriented evaluation research can be carried out in this setting, with access to appropriate data, is a matter of conjecture. This preliminary study will identify what information is available and how other data might be collected from various types of teacher enhancement providers.
