This book was released on 1994-04-06 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Program Evaluation Standards is a 'must-have' book for anyone responsible for reviewing evaluation proposals, planning and conducting evaluations, managing evaluation projects, or judging the merit and worth of evaluations once completed. For experienced practitioners, it provides a set of values and principles by which to guide successful practice, that is, a set of criteria that determines whether educational evaluations are trustworthy and fair. The Standards sets expectations of the design and implementation of educational evaluation for all practitioners in all types of educational arenas, even those involved in social programming endeavors. For newcomers and those less experienced who may be responsible for commissioning and using evaluations, the Standards supplies a useful framework of generating a list of questions to raise about any evaluation plan or final report in an effort to assess its pros and cons. The book is an invaluable 'how-to' resource for graduate students venturing out into the field, and it instills a sense of what it means to be a responsible evaluator. For clients or consumers, the book offers advice on what they should expect of an evaluation"--Publisher description.

Download or read book Mixed Methods for Policy Research and Program Evaluation written by Patricia Burch and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2015-02-18 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed Methods for Policy Research and Program Evaluation by Patricia Burch and Carolyn J. Heinrich equips students, researchers, and policymakers in the social sciences with the tools they need for applying mixed methods in policy research and program evaluation, from design, through data collection, and dissemination. Emphasizing the “how-to”—the set of conceptual and active tasks carried out by mixed methods researchers—the book is illustrated with rich case studies from the authors’ own research projects in education and public policy. These examples help readers identify and explain policy and program impacts and better understand the “why” and “how” of observed effects. Throughout the book, the authors describe challenges that both beginners and advanced scholars are likely to encounter when doing mixed methods research and recommend practical tools available to address them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a provision of the Education Amendments of 1978 concerning evaluation practices and procedures, this report examines four aspects of evaluation in education which focus on how funds allocated to evaluation can be spent more effectively and yield more useful results. On this basis, groups of recommendations are made to both Congress and the Department of Education. These are presented in an opening summary and the discussed more fully in each chapter. The first chapter is designed as an introduction to the background and scope of the report. A definition of evaluation is given in chapter two, which also addresses congressional concern with uniform methods and measures in the context of delineating different types of evaluation and their appropriate use. Improvement of the quality of evaluation forms the substance of chapter three. Discussion in chapter four centers upon the utilization and dissemination of evaluation results. The final chapter makes recommendations for improved management and organization and presents implications for this derived from preceding chapters. Appended are a glossary, references, and three appendixes concerning types of federal educational evaluation activities, the parties who conduct them, and the organization of the evaluation system at state and local levels.
