CEMSE's Jeanne Century, Molly Rudnick, and Cassie Freeman have an article in the Fall issue of Science Educator. Science Educator is a peer-reviewed journal published by the National Science Education Leadership Association. The article builds off of CEMSE's NSF funded project that focuses on developing measures for fidelity of implementation of instructional materials. The authors propose an approach to adapting the conceptual framework underlying the fidelity work and applying it to create a model for studying the roles and impacts of various science specialist models.
