Comprehensive Program Demographics Instruments for STEM Education Research
Understanding the context and impact of STEM education programs requires clear and consistent demographic information. This collection of program demographic instruments provides standardized measures that help researchers capture essential structural, instructional, and participant characteristics. These tools support comprehensive program evaluation by documenting factors such as program type, staffing, student participation, academic coursework, support services, and institutional context. By gathering these foundational data points, researchers can better interpret outcomes, compare program models, and strengthen evidence-based decision-making in STEM education.
