This SGER project examines and tests the premise of staged evaluations of large, complex initiatives. The project will study and describe such a staged approach and then conduct a prototype stage-one evaluation using a current NSF Chemistry program as a way to test out the concept. The project is highly innovative as the way evaluations are structured or funded are seldom the subject of research or innovation. While pilot studies are often used in the development of instructional materials, for example, this approach is not used in conducting evaluation studies. The SGER links strongly to evaluation theory, and has the potential to articulate a new approach for conducting evaluative studies of large, complicated projects.

这个SGER项目检查和测试大型复杂计划的阶段性评估的前提。该项目将研究和描述这种分阶段的方法，然后使用当前的NSF化学计划进行原型第一阶段评估，作为测试概念的一种方式。该项目具有高度创新性，因为评价的结构或供资方式很少成为研究或创新的主题。例如，虽然在编写教材时经常采用试点研究，但在进行评价研究时并不采用这种方法。SGER与评估理论紧密相连，并有可能为大型复杂项目的评估研究提供一种新的方法。
