Notes

  1. 1.

    We are eager to share these tools—which are readily available--with the larger education community. But we must wait until we begin the larger study. We are currently in the process of applying for funding. Once funding is secured we will invite the international community to participate through our extensive network of educators in teacher preparation programs and professional organizations.
