New Issues and Opportunities in Out-of-School Time Evaluation Brief
Our "Issues and Opportunities in Out-of-School Time Evaluation" briefs
highlight current research and evaluation work in the out-of-school time
field. These documents draw on our research work in out-of-school time
in order to provide practitioners, funders, evaluators, and policymakers
with information to help them in their work.
Our newest research brief, "Summer Success: Challenges and Strategies in
Creating Quality Academically Focused Summer Programs" (Number 9,
October 2006), synthesizes formative findings from 34 evaluations of
academically focused summer programs to examine ways of creating quality
programming for youth. Learn about 7 common challenges programs face in
achieving quality, and discover promising and innovative strategies for
overcoming these challenges. You can access the brief online at:
