Figure 2: Results of an Educator Workshop in Kansas City, February 2004 for 117 grade K-12 educators. Attendees were asked to rank the presenters in five key areas including ‘their ability to facilitate inquiry-based exploration by the audience’. The ranking is on a 1 to 4 scale with 1=’not effective’ and 4=‘very effective’. An ‘Overall Grade’ is then calculated across the pool of responses where an average rank of 3 out of 4 corresponds to a grade of 66.6 out of 100. Our expectation is a minimum grade of 87.5. These data obtained from 90 respondents yield an Overall Grade of 93.
