Program Evaluation: An Empirical Study of Individualized Instruction:

Program Evaluation: An Empirical Study of Individualized Instruction: This study describes the results of three years of evaluative investigation of lrdc’s program of individualized education. The study was conducted in seven Follow Through sites and three Pittsburgh area schools. Standardized tests were used as input and outcome measures; questionnaires and videotapes were used to gather information about the classroom processes. The results indicate that over the three-year period the implementation of the program continued to move toward ideal goals. Extensive data reduction procedures were used and the rationale of usage discussed. Results also point to input as the primary explanation of student end-of-year performance, though classroom processes contribute a small but consistent amount. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png American Educational Research Journal SAGE

Abstract

This study describes the results of three years of evaluative investigation of lrdc’s program of individualized education. The study was conducted in seven Follow Through sites and three Pittsburgh area schools. Standardized tests were used as input and outcome measures; questionnaires and videotapes were used to gather information about the classroom processes. The results indicate that over the three-year period the implementation of the program continued to move toward ideal goals. Extensive data reduction procedures were used and the rationale of usage discussed. Results also point to input as the primary explanation of student end-of-year performance, though classroom processes contribute a small but consistent amount.
