A Replication Study of the Advanced Technological Education (ATE) Sustainability Survey

This report from Wayne Welch of the University of Minnesota looks at the sustainability of the Advanced Technological Education Program by building on a previous survey administered to ATE Projects and Centers in 2009. As the paper states: "A survey implemented by the Evaluation Center at Western Michigan University (UWM) provided an opportunity to replicate part of the study described above. This survey, administered online, gathers data from ATE grant recipients about the grantees and their activities, accomplishments, and impacts for each calendar year. This survey asks questions about products and activities carried out in 2010. I compared the findings of their survey with the findings I found for 2009."
