| Abstract:
Utilizing the cases of two NSF (National Science Foundation) ITEST (Innovative Technology Experiences for Students & Teachers) funded STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) middle and high school educational programs, this interactive session will explore the issues and best practices associated with changing evaluators during the funding cycle. As a coordinated poster, the presenters bring important and complementary perspectives (incoming/outgoing & evaluator/PI) to this important issue within the field of evaluation, particularly related to K-12 educational programs.
