During her tenure at the NEA, Dr. Shaffer directed an evaluation study of Poetry Out Loud, a national arts education program supported by the National Endowment for the Arts, the Poetry Foundation, and state and jurisdictional arts agencies. The quasi-experimental study—involving data collection from ten sample schools—assessed the program’s impact on poetry appreciation and engagement, social and emotional development, and academic performance.
