survey instrument will be put together by Lenore using team member
content contributions; we discussed who should be given this survey – 6
names of local coordinators were suggested

mapping out task analysis plan; team worked on drafting presentation of
this plan to be delivered to EDIT 730 class on 11/20

science and math content skill information (optimal/actual) by grade
