Program evaluation Sebastian Uijtdehaage

Why do you evaluate?

Five reasons of evaluating 1.FORMATIVE informs program development 2.SUMMATIVE demonstrate program’s success and impact 3.UNDERSTANDING how and why did program work? 4.DISSEMINATION sharing best practices 5.RECOGNITION scholarship, academic credit, leadership Stufflebeam 2003

What type of evaluation should I conduct?

Outcome & Impact Did it work?

Dan Stufflebeam: CIPP Model of Program Evaluation Needs Assessment What should we do? Program Planning How shall we do it? Implementation Are we doing as planned? Outcome & Impact Does it work? INPUT CONTEXT PROCESS PRODUCT

What type of evaluation should I conduct? Formative or Summative?

formative & summative evaluation Formative Evaluation ContextWhat needs to be done? InputHow should it be done? ProcessIs it being done? ProductIs it working? Stufflebeam 2003

formative & summative evaluation Formative EvaluationSummative Evaluation ContextWhat needs to be done? Were important needs addressed? InputHow should it be done? Was program plan defensible? ProcessIs it being done?Was the plan well executed? ProductIs it working?Did the effort make a difference? Stufflebeam 2003

What type of evaluation should I conduct? Quantitative or Qualitative?

Quantitative or qualitative measures? Quantitative measures HOW MUCH…? How much did the participant change? How much did the community change? Qualitative measures WHY and HOW? Why did the program work? How did participants change as result?

What makes good evaluation?

Evaluation must be planned ahead Evaluation should be part of program planning Planning and resource allocation makes evaluation more successful – Example: long-term tracking of participants

Confidence being admitted in a medical school

What else makes good evaluation? Scientific rigor Evaluation produces useful information that helps make decisions – Assessment should be done with a particular purpose in mind Evaluation is tailored to your program objectives Evaluation is done with conceptual framework in mind
