Synopsis

A step-by-step guide through the process of programme evaluation which takes into account all the evaluator's roles -- not just as researcher, but as negotiator, administrator and organizer, writer, and communicator. Kosekoff and Fink offer some of the techniques that have proven useful in their own professional evaluation practice. They show how to appraise a programme's merit, and provide information about its goals, expectations, outcomes, impact and costs.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

Unlike their predecessors, present-day evaluators must negotiate with public and private agencies, organize and administer projects, speak to groups, write reports and budgets, as well as play the role of politician and philosopher. Additionally, they must think as ethicists when asking personal survey questions (so as not to violate the privacy of the individual) or contemplate random assignment (thereby potentially denying services to some). Evaluation Basics offers proven techniques in a "how to" format, with step-by-step directions and illustrations. This book will be of use to those conducting evaluations, working with someone else who does, or planning to conduct evaluations in the future.
