Training partners may be one solution to obtaining longitudinal information about the impact of staff development in the classroom. Select 'demonstration' classrooms. Teachers who are enthusiastic and supportive about training that they have received may be willing to have their site designated a 'demonstration' classroom and to welcome observers to visit and view a program in an applied setting. Information collected from these 'demonstration' classrooms can be a valuable supplement to other program evaluation efforts. Offer teachers incentives for assisting in program evaluation.
Incentives can increase teacher involvement in activities related to program evaluation.
