Abstract

An evaluation plan using eight methods—teacher demographic/attitude/behavior questionnaire, focus groups, content knowledge, work sample analysis, teaching logs, videotapes of classrooms, accomplishments and presentations, and action research thesis development—has been effective in assessing a complex project. "Using Computer Visualization in Teaching Secondary Mathe matics (Viz-Math)," a National Science Foundation-funded master's degree program, has been both intensive and extensive in enhancing teachers' mathematics content; in implementing classroom-reformed pedagogy, curriculum, and technology; in requiring classroom research; and m training teachers as change agents. The evaluation methods explored the project's goals in multiple ways to provide a triangulation of findings .
