3 A school district has asked you to evaluate a reading tutoring program targeting struggling readers in upper elementary grades. Students take regular reading classes with their peers and also receive tutoring by trained college student volunteers in groups of four on a pull-out basis, meaning that the tutors bring students to a small classroom for 45 minutes of class time daily for more individualized instruction. Tutors are trained by university literacy faculty for 20 hours and use an instructor guidebook, student workbooks, and works of children’s literature for each student in their instruction. Students use their own notebooks and pencils from reading class to complete assignments and take notes.Which costs of the program are incremental? Which are not? Why?Under what circumstances would you want to consider the incremental cost versus the total cost of the program?
