WestEd Contract - ADWD.pdf
Summary
:
WestEd will conduct an independent evaluation of the Teaching American History Grant "American Democracy in Word and Deed" (ADWD). The evaluation will use a mixed-method, quasi-experimental design to assess the impact of the ADWD project on teacher knowledge and practice as well as on student achievement. The design will be carried out each year with both cohorts of primary and secondary teachers. WestEd will measure teachers' history content knowledge by developing a teacher assessment, observe a sample of classrooms of both participating teachers and teachers in the district who are not ADWD participants, conduct group interviews with participating teachers every year in order to gain a thorough understanding of the process that they experience as they create more effective history lesson plans, and utilize the 8th and 11th grade students' scale scores on the History and English-Language Arts California Standards Tests (CST) to determine if the students in the participating teachers' classrooms exhibit higher achievement in history and language arts than those in comparison teachers' classrooms.
Funding
:
Contract is 10% of total grant award, or $166,666.00 of 1.6 million dollars split over 5 years (4 years @ $33,000 + year 5 @ $34,666).
Fiscal Impact
