This presentation discusses an evaluation needs, assets, and interest assessment conducted with principal investigators and evaluators of the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Innovative Technology Experiences for Students and Teachers (ITEST) program. With a training or development intervention in mind, the objectives for the assessment were to determine and prioritize primary content areas and means for delivery as well as to solicit ITEST examples for inclusion in learning opportunities. Attendees in this session will learn about (a) how the assessment was conducted; (b) what primary evaluation learning needs, assets, and interest exist in the NSF ITEST community; and (c) how findings from the assessment inform the development of Web-based training and development opportunities for the ITEST community. Limitations of the assessment and associated challenges for curriculum development will also be highlighted.#2010Conference #NeedsAssessment
