Module 5 Discussion 1

TYPES AND PURPOSES OF EVALUATION

Evaluations are designed to address various questions and can use a variety of designs. It is important to identify the type of evaluation to be conducted and to select an evaluation design that is most appropriate for the program. When it comes to program evaluation, one size does not fit all.

To prepare for this Discussion, review the two case studies provided in the CDC Get Smart Program Planner. Analyze the evaluation methods used to conduct the Get Smart evaluation. Consider the ways in which the program stakeholders influenced the evaluations. Select one case study on which to focus your Discussion post.
