Hello all -
Does anyone have any information on the findings of
evaluation research into educational interventions (specifically those utilizing
some form of computer literacy training) for children in foster
care?
Thanks,
Anna Hall

Several evaluations of the Foster Youth Services program (a program in California) reported children receiving those services (tutoring, counseling, academic case management) made improvement on academic outcomes. Wolf et al. (2000), reporting on an experiential education program, found that a higher percentage of youth participating in the program graduated from high school or earned a GED than their counterparts not participating in the program. Donlevy (2000) conducted an evaluation of a school that included academic courses and technology-based vocational courses (students building, testing, and using their own computers) and found that students showed improvement on the Regents Competency Tests in New York. I hope that is helpful. Charlie At 01:26 PM 10/15/2002 -0400, you wrote: Hello all - Charlie Ferguson, Ed.M., M.S.W.

I am currently looking for exercises (that instructors might use in the MSW classroom) related to person in environment assessments (PIE). I remember these from my days in HBSE but unfortunately I can't find the materials. Does anyone have such exercises that I could use with our staff and researchers?
