Adding Value to the Mathematics and Science Partnerships Evaluations

拟议的项目是对MSP项目对学生成绩影响的实证研究，包括向大约15名MSP评估者提供关于MSP评估挑战的技术援助，以及使用适当的分析工具和技术来研究MSP的影响。拟议的为期三年的项目有三个目标：1)增加MSP评估者关于成功衡量学生学习随时间变化所需的设计、指标和条件的知识，2)为评估者开发有用的工具，将结果归因于MSP活动，以及3)应用不同的技术来分析学生成绩和MSP项目活动之间的关系，以评估MSP项目的成功。

The proposed project is an empirical study of the effects of MSP projects on student achievement, and it includes providing technical assistance to approximately 15 MSP evaluators regarding MSP evaluation challenges and the use of appropriate analytic tools and techniques for studying the impacts of MSPs. The proposed three-year project has three goals: 1) to increase the knowledge of MSP evaluators about design, indicators, and conditions needed to successfully measure change in student learning over time, 2) to develop useful tools for evaluators to attribute outcomes to MSP activities, and 3) to apply different techniques for analyzing the relationship between student achievement and MSP project activities in order to evaluate the success of MSP projects.
