Hello, And in addition to everything else that Currie listed in the attached message, we also need ONGOING EVALUATION to document and monitor our progress. In an earlier message, someone suggested that the resources be divided in thirds: hardware, professional development, and ongoing technical assistance. I propose 30% for each of the above, leaving 10% for evaluation. Therefore, a $2M undertaking should earmark $200K for evaluation. This may sound like a lot for those who want more funds for hardware, but think of the many past projects from which nothing was learned because of inadequate evaluation.
