Annotated Bibliographies Bus Transportation College Mathematics Compensatory Education Desegregation Methods Educational Programs Elementary Secondary Education Higher Education Preschool Education Program Evaluation Remedial Mathematics Research Reviews (Publications) Research Tools Student Evaluation of Teacher Performance Teacher Evaluation Test Construction Test Reviews The Formative Evaluation and Heuristic Research (FEHR) PRACTICUM, a computerized game, gives practical experience in such program evaluation tasks as problem definition, operationalizing objectives, field study, budgeting, proposal writing, data analysis, and interpretation--without the expense and time commitments required by most research. The players, graduate students or practicing professionals, design and conduct an experiment comparing the effectiveness of available educational programs on students in a mythical school district. As a "research assistant," the computer can identify individuals or groups of students by category (test score, grade, sex), apply educational programs, and administer and score tests which determine the effects of a program over time. There is no predetermined decision; rather, the results of each team are critically evaluated and methodological implications are discussed. Available problems study from preschool to college level populations; this document describes empirical evaluations related to Head Start programs, remedial mathematics for college students, busing to achieve racial integration, and validation of a teacher questionnaire. Each problem has its own Information Bank, which is a simulated library that helps players to define their experiment by examining real-life research. Each bank is divided into four sections: (1) abstracts of articles directly related to the problem, (2) abstracts of auxiliary references, (3) descriptive and normative data on each of the standardized tests available in the problem, and (4) test critiques.
