Dr. Rose Shaw will serve as the External Evaluator for the XULA-MOLE project. Dr. Shaw has a great deal of experience that is relevant to evaluating this Program. She has been a third party independent external evaluator of over 80 projects in 19 states and many of the projects have included work force development components. About two-thirds of the projects were funded by the National Science Foundation (MSP, STEM-C, EPSCoR RII T1 and T2, S-STEM, HBCU, DRK12, GK12, ITEST, ADVANCE, LSAMP, IGERT) and the others were supported by grants from the National Institutes of Health (INBRE and RCMI), United States Department of Agriculture (REEU, NNF), and the Department of Education (Reading Excellence Act, Reading First and various Block grant projects). She also does statistical consulting; the latest project was an Institute of Education Science (IES) research study using a randomized control design to study dietary intake in infants and toddlers with visual impairment.
