This State Education Agency (SEA) Process Model Instrument for ESEA Title I is one of the products developed and validated by the SEA (State Educational Agencies) Management of Compensatory Education, a multistate project funded through ESEA Title V-505. Representatives from each State Educational Agency, their selected Local Education Agencies, the U.S. Office of Education, and Communication Technology Corporation of Marlton, New Jersey formulated this instrument as a supporting device to the State Education Agency (SEA) Self Analysis Instrument, said to have been designed for self-analyzing the effectiveness of the administration of an ESEA Title I program in a State Education Agency. This SEA Process Model is said to support the self-evaluation instrument by identifying 'key' processes or activities that must be accomplished if improvements are desired any by providing the opportunity to plan, assign responsibility, and monitor the processes of activities associated with each criterion statement. The instrument is structured around 12 sections whose use is explained. They are: Criterion Statement, Criterion Coordinator, Type Use Program, Section, Criterion Number, Page Number, Approved By, Date, Major Process Activities, Responsibility (Person or Unit), and Plan by Month. Although said to have been designed as a supportive device, the instrument is claimed to be able to stand alone to serve as a viable planning document for an education agency. (Author/AM)
