Indicators of Effectiveness and Efficiency. Part III. A Report of Program Site Reviews of K-3 Programs at Selected Schools, 1974-75. Statistical Report Series 77-11.
Florida State Dept. of Education, Tallahassee. Div. of Public Schools.
This report discusses the analysis of program review data obtained through visits to schools identified by an earlier statewide cost-effectiveness study. Primary purpose of this report was to determine the feasibility of conducting program site reviews of selected schools for the purpose of recommending instructional improvements. Site reviews were conducted at eight Florida schools selected from among the 50 most efficient and 50 least efficient schools as identified through analysis of Florida's 1974 Statewide Assessment Test of basic skills. In their site reviews, visitation teams concentrated on five areas: staff development, planning and program evaluation, curriculum, management, and program support services. Results of the program site reviews suggested that (1) the concept of such vistations was feasible, but (2) the survey instruments would have to be greatly improved, and (3) the areas under investigation were too broad. The appendix contains a copy of the program site review instrument, as well as several tables that summarize the observational data gathered through the site reviews. (JG)
