Author(s): Shimkus, Elizabeth S.; Banilower, Eric R.
Publication Date: November 2004

This study uses longitudinal data from LSC projects to examine the extent to which the project evolved over time in a number of key areas: quality of the professional development program; supportiveness of context for the LSC reforms; and the likelihood of institutionalization of LSC reforms. A series of hierarchical models was used to explore the relationship between program ratings and project age.
