Description
While program evaluation provides useful formative and summative data for policy makers and administrators to consider, it simultaneously provides the impetus to promote positive change and reinforce current effective practice within a school district. By carefully considering the steps from the initial identification of the need for evaluation to post-evaluation reporting, you can create a simple or complex process tailored to your needs and resources. See how to mobilize stakeholders to implement meaningful reform or support current effective programming. Learn from the experience of two veterans of the process who have seen how effective (and pleasurable) evaluation can be.
