Registration
begins!
After you have registered for the LIMA Quest Challenge you will receive an
email giving you information on how to access the pre-challenge
survey for your
students. This pre-survey and a post-survey help us to evaluate the impact of
our challenges. We will also be requesting teacher evaluations at the end of
the challenge. |
| April 2008 |
• Challenge begins!
• Educators' Guide available
online. For
those who downloaded the version without reference to Standards,
those pages are also available as
stand-alone pdf document.
NOTE: Please
remember to have their students take the pre-survey before you
introduce this material. Tell them that we will collect pre-
and post-data and need to measure student learning.
