Regression and Model C for Evaluation

Abstract

The objectives of this symposium are to:
1) Provide a rationale for using regression analysis (specifically Model C) to evaluate educational programs.
2) Provide one example of an extensive Model C evaluation report.
3) Discuss assumptions of Model C and ways to deal with those assumptions.
4) Share examples of disseminating Model C results to decision makers.
5) Identify and resolve additional technical issues that evaluators need to be concerned about when implementing Model C.
