Research, Metrics and Evaluation Study
One of the goals of GLP is to consistently evaluate the effectiveness and success of its programs to ensure participants receive the best language education possible. GLP has partnered with New York University to implement research and assessment of Speak to Succeed and the Neighborhood Language Partnership, evaluating the key areas of language acquisition:
- Comprehension
- Communication abilities
- Writing
- Success of participants against district, state and national language-learning standards
In addition to measuring language acquisition, we will also measure and track the changes in student self-concept and cross-cultural competencies. As the Study measures results and outcomes, the organization will communicate its findings to educators, the media, and policymakers with the goal of becoming a leader in language-learning curriculum development and an advocate for language education issues.
