Research Notes is a publication of the College of Education's Institute for Educational Research that highlights grant announcements, proposals submitted, and grant awards 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 UK's Office of Sponsored Projects Administration through the College Grants Officer, Faith Cordray. To ensure that Research Notes accurately reflects all College of Education faculty research activities, it is essential that Faith Cordray has a copy of the completed and signed IAF on file.
