UK College of Education Research Notes

April and May 2007 By Lars G. Björk, Director

 

Research Notes is a monthly publication of the Institute for Educational Research that highlights grant announcements, proposals submitted and received by faculty in the College of Education as well as their collaborative research activities with other Colleges. Information included in Research Notes is derived from Internal Approval Forms (IAF) routinely submitted to OSPA through the College Grants Office. To ensure that Research Notes accurately reflects all College of Education faculty research activities, it is essential that Faith Cordray has a copy of IAF on file faith.cordray@uky.edu.
