Who are the participants?

The work is carried out by the Office of Bilingual Education, The Education Alliance at Brown University, and the D&D Consultants - faculty members from 12 major local universities. Representatives from these 3 groups form an external support team for each school, providing AR coaching, relevant research literature, technical expertise related to the AR questions, assistance assessing student progress and documenting the AR process itself. They also assist in documenting exemplary/promising practices.

Building principals, district superintendents, and district bilingual coordinators actively support the Initiative by committing their interest, time, and a variety of resources. Nine districts (and schools) participated in 1998-99; 11 are participating in 1999-2000. (Click here for map of participating schools.)
