Using Quantitative Data To Evaluate Tutoring, SI & Study Groups
Key Takeaway What statistics are commonly used in learning assistance programs in order to demonstrate program effectiveness? What data is needed in order to use a variety of stats for evaluation? The webinar focuses on answering these key questions while also promoting participants' confidence in quantitative evaluations for their programs. Challenge Some evaluation challenges involve the very core of an evaluation: getting the student demographic and performance data. Many learning assistance programs do not automatically have access to the information they need in order to demonstrate that their tutoring, SI, and study groups are effectively helping students stay in their classes and earn better grades.
