Did you know that if you completed the 2007-2008 report, you have completed 60% of the 2008-2009 report? This will occur because answers to 78 questions will be transferred to the 2008-2009 report. These are questions whose answers change very little from year to year, such as whether a selection policy is in place or what is the school's Internet connection and speed. You will have the ability to revise the answers if circumstances have changed.

That leaves just 40 questions --mostly dealing with student services and the collection-- to be completed during the data collection period beginning April 15, 2009.

I have posted the 2008-2009 worksheet and definitions for review at the Documents section. I've labeled the definitions as Draft because I need to learn if any need further clarifications. Please let me know by November 25. .
Email me directly or post a message here.

This is where questions and answers will be archived for the purpose of consistency. I've posted the previous two updates here. You can view the documents but in order to post a comment, you need to register. Registration is free and provides opportunities to take advantage of course offerings and other benefits.
Reminder: Three questions require a sample to create a composite :
• L30-Student Visits for the year
• L33-Individual Student Instruction
• P10-Licensed Media Specialist Week

Other questions in the Student Services section and Collaboration are easier to complete if you keep a running tally of these activities.
