Abstract

Wonderwise 4-H is a three year, NSF-funded project that extends the previous
Wonderwise Women in Science projects to target the informal 4-H audience. This evaluation is
designed to describe, summarize, and assess the dissemination of the Wonderwise 4-H project
for 4-H leaders and staff to the 10 involved partner states. The five phases of the planned
dissemination included (1) recruiting and organizing state 4-H partners, (2) piloting and revising
original Wonderwise kits, (3) using workshops to introduce the Wonderwise 4-H Kits, (4)
utilizing grant resources, and (5) using Wonderwise within each state 4-H program. Data about
the actual dissemination was gathered primarily from the state contacts in the partner states
through interviews.
