Abstract: Survey findings on state educational validation procedures show that of the 50 states surveyed, 45 have some form of established procedure for validation promising educational practices. Approximately two-thirds of the states that have validation programs employ either the Identification, Validation, Dissemination (IVD) procedure or some modification of it. Roughly a third of the states reported that they use their own state-developed validation processes. Forty-three states conduct site visits, following prescreening, to verify projects' status on the state's validation criteria. Significant variation occurs in the length of the site visits, the number of team members, and the composition of the teams. Twenty-seven states reported that they provide support to both the developer/demonstrators and the adopter/adapters of validated programs. Close to three-fourths of the states reportedly are involved in some form of cooperative activities with other nearby states. However, the cooperative activities center primarily on implementation of the validation procedure. Few if any states cooperate by actually sharing validated programs. A number of recommendations are made in the general areas of coordination and communication, funding, diffusion efforts, and the scope of the Joint Dissemination Review Panel (JDRP) programs.
