Source: Grantee Annual Performance Reports. Frequency: Annually. Next Data Available: December 2007 Data Validated By: On-Site Monitoring By ED. Limitations: There are no statutory reporting requirements. Grantee performance reports indicate a multitude of various assessment measurements used to determine and plot student growth in language ability. Explanation: The FY 2004 data were used to establish a baseline. Grantees are local educational agencies (LEAs) that receive funding for three years. Each grantee establishes its own annual performance targets for improved foreign language proficiency. Data on improved foreign language proficiency come from the annual report received at the end of the second year of the grant. Not all funded projects provide instruction, some focus on developmental activities such as teacher training and, therefore, would not collect data on improvements in foreign language proficiency. Others may not collect data in the first year of the grant. |
