I was wondering if you could provide me with a little more information about this measure. What questions do you ask to measure growth and how do you assess the student responses? Thanks for your help! ~Lori *************************** Lori Rosenthal, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Psychology Department Worcester State College 486 Chandler Street Worcester, MA 01602 508-929-8764 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
