Pilot Testing and Refinement Process

Pilot testing is conducted every six months, the number of participating schools increasing with each pilot. Initial testing was conducted in three local schools in fall 2000 and nine local and regional schools in spring 2001. Fall 2001 testing will be regional and national, with 36 schools. EventScope will be available to all interested schools in 2002.
