Description: REL Central presenters will provide an overview of the collaborative work between REL Central and North Dakota Department of Public Instruction to design a culturally responsive evaluation plan for the implementation of lessons aligned with the North Dakota Native American Essential Understandings. The design process includes four steps: (1) developing a logic model and corresponding evaluation questions; (2) identifying pertinent data to answer the evaluation questions; (3) creating new data collection instruments; and (4) constructing a data collection and analysis timeline. School-, district-, and state-level staff who need to examine initiatives targeting Native American students will find value in attending this session. Participants will increase their ability to design a culturally responsive evaluation plan for initiatives related to Native American education.
