This project is an empirical study of the effects of MSP projects on student achievement, and it includes providing technical assistance to approximately 15 MSP evaluators regarding MSP evaluation challenges and the use of appropriate analytic tools and techniques for studying the impacts of MSPs. This three-year project has three goals:
- to increase the knowledge of MSP evaluators about design, indicators, and conditions needed to successfully measure change in student learning over time,
- to develop useful tools for evaluators to attribute outcomes to MSP activities, and
- to apply different techniques for analyzing the relationship between student achievement and MSP project activities in order to evaluate the success of MSP projects.
The Principal Investigator of Adding Value to MSP Evaluations is Norman Webb.

This site was created to enhance communication and collaboration
between partners within the Adding Value
project as well as to inform the public of the efforts of the Math
and Science Partnership Program. While selected documents in the
library and resources sections have been made available
to the public, only logged in members of the
Adding Value to MSP Evaluations project can post comments,
participate or read posts in the Working Groups, or see the interactive
Calendar.
