New
4Rs research project wins grant
We are thrilled
to report that a major scientific evaluation of our 4Rs Program is now
in the works. (For more information about the 4Rs, click
here.)
Undertaking
the study is the same wonderful team that led the RCCP evaluation several
years ago: Larry Aber, Josh Brown, and Stephanie Jones. Our 4Rs study
was one of only seven chosen for funding by the U.S. Department of Education’s
Institute of Education Sciences, in a competitive field of over 80 proposals.
The grant is for $2.4 million over five years.
The study
will examine the impact of The 4Rs Program on teachers and school climate.
In addition to this research, the grant will pay for Morningside Center
to implement The 4Rs school-wide in five schools for three consecutitve
years.
We are very
excited to be able to contribute to research in our field, to put our
program to the test, and to work again with the talented team that conducted
the highly successful RCCP study. We’ll keep you posted on the
study’s progress.
