Forums on Fidelity of Implementation
The Center for Elementary Mathematics and Science Education at the University of Chicago is convening a series of on-line forums on fidelity of implementation with a particular focus on STEM education programs. These forums build from an NSF supported project that resulted in a suite of instruments for measuring FOI of mathematics and science instructional materials and a series webinars that highlighted some of the challenging issues of FOI measurement.

Precision Gains from Publically Available School Proficiency Measures Compared to Study-Collected Test Scores in Education Cluster-Randomized Trials
New state-level data on statewide policies on assessments, adequate yearly progress, high school graduation, and certification requirements for teachers are now available on the State Education Reforms website, hosted by the National Center for Education Statistics (NCES) in the Institute of Education Sciences.
You are invited to participate in a webcast on the NSF's new program, Promoting Research and Innovation in Methodologies for Evaluation (PRIME). PRIME Program Officers will share information on the new solicitation and answer questions posed by the audience. An archived version will also be available from the same website. The webcast will be closed-captioned.
We have two informational webcasts.
PRIME Webcast 1: November 1, 2010, from 1:00 to 3:00 pm Eastern.
Registration is open for the 2010 DR K-12 PI Meeting. Due to the large size of the DR K-12 program, the meeting is open to invited guests only. Check your inboxes (and spam boxes) for the invitation.
The CADRE Fellowship, now in its second year, is a capacity building experience for early career researchers and developers to gain exposure to STEM education research and researchers working beyond the Fellow’s particular project and institution, network with colleagues from across the country, and gain insights into NSF and what it takes to be successful and effective in this work.
