The purpose of this Public Participation Plan is twofold: (1) to establish ways for sharing knowledge about the chemical weapons disposal mission at Pueblo Chemical Depot; and (2) to allow members of the community surrounding the U.S. Army Pueblo Chemical Depot to communicate openly with the Department of Defense, Program Manager Assembled Chemical Weapons Alternatives the Army, Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment and the systems contractor, Bechtel National, Inc. about chemical weapons stockpile disposal. This document outlines specific public participation strategies for addressing these goals and for maintaining the Public Participation Plan as a flexible, "living" document that can adapt to evolving community needs and concerns.
This final report presents the results of the external evaluation studies of Colorado Online Learning by external Consultant Dixie Griffin Good. The evaluation period covers three years, from the Fall 2002 though Summer 2005, coinciding with COLs three-year grant from the Colorado Department of Education. By most measures, COL can be considered a successful program. It expands opportunities for Colorado students through combining high-quality courses, highly-qualified instructors, and communications technology.
