Evaluation & Assessment

The Evaluation & Assessment team at the CSTL offers STEM program evaluation and assessment for pre-K-12 and higher education- from proposal development to data analysis and reporting. Teaming with an evaluator can help to determine how to plan your program in order to achieve your program goals, what data should be collected, and what the data indicates about program success and areas for improvement.
