Implementation of the Louisiana ADD Law.
Pounders, Mickey
Louisiana's state education agency (SEA) was mandated to provide appropriate services for children with attention deficit disorders, by developing statewide training for representatives from public school districts and by selecting and implementing four pilot programs. The SEA implemented the pilot programs, provided an informational training conference, and developed a program guidance manual. A formative evaluation of the SEA's efforts, based on document analysis and a survey of conference attendees, revealed that the SEA staff had done a good job in overseeing the project and providing technical assistance to local education authorities. Appendixes make up the bulk of the report and provide: a copy of the authorizing legislation; a rating scale used to evaluate the project; a copy of the Request for Proposals developed to solicit pilot program applications; descriptions of the four pilot programs selected for funding; a conference agenda and conference evaluation form; and other survey forms and evaluative data.
