Overview

In next week's assignment you start the first of your four–part Program Evaluation Plan by describing

and analyzing important aspects of your chosen program. This activity requires you to first choose a

program and then describe it.

Preparation

Selecting the proper program to evaluate is a critical step in creating a successful evaluation plan.

Select a K-12 program that you are interested in, would like to see evaluated, and most importantly, is

accessible—that is, one that you are able to readily obtain information about that will allow you to

complete all aspects of the project as described in the Course Project description. Failing to do this

will likely make your work more difficult.

Possible programs include, but are not limited to:

Student or teacher assessment.

Pay for student achievement.

New teacher or employee training.

Online learning.

Overview

In your week 10 assignment you will be designing your evaluation plan. The first step in that process is

to identify your primary goals for the evaluation. This is a very important step that will guide your

evaluation planning. In this activity, formulate and analyze the goals of the evaluation.

Instructions

Write one page explaining your three, primary program evaluation goals. Justify why they are

appropriate and likely to serve as effective guides for program enhancements.

Include introductory and summary paragraphs.

Use Strayer Writing Standards.

The Strayer Writing Standards (SWS) is a brief set of guidelines that helps students ensure their

writing is professional, avoids plagiarism, and gives credit to other people’s ideas used in their work.

SWS uses the terms 'in-text citation' and 'source list' when referring to other works.

Overview

In Part 2 of your Project Plan, you recommended an evaluation approach. In this assignment, Part 3 of

your Project Plan, you will share your analysis of aspects of your evaluation, identify milestones for its

completion, specify data collection techniques, and describe how you will communicate your work to

stakeholders.

Instructions

Note on Data Collection: Be aware that there are often multiple methods of data collection

(observations, surveys, and focus groups) employed in a robust program evaluation. In this

assignment, you are asked to focus on a single method that you believe would best inform your

evaluation. Review the resources related to data collection as you consider your approach to data

gathering.

Write 5–7 pages in which you:

Analyze the program to explain three significant cultural or political issues that are likely to be

encountered during the evaluation. Describe ways to effectively address them.

Provide a timeline with significant milestones (include brief descriptors where necessary) that

represent a complete program evaluation plan.

Dates: Use dates that are reasonable approximations of how long each milestone should

take. Use today’s date as a starting point.

Milestones: List all significant evaluation milestones. Make sure to include the next three

bullet points as milestones since they represent important elements of a full evaluation plan.

Justify your data collection methodology (observations, surveys, and focus groups.) Make sure to

describe how it aligns to your chosen approach.

Describe three issues that may likely be encountered during collection, compilation,

interpretation, or reporting of the data.

Justify your methods for communicating evaluation data and findings to stakeholders. Make sure

to identify your chosen stakeholders and why your reporting is appropriate for the audience.

Communication methods could be emails, meetings, presentations, mailed reports, and

roundtables.

Use at least three sources to support your writing. Choose sources that are credible, relevant, and

appropriate. Cite each source listed on your source page at least one time within your assignment. For

help with research, writing, and citations, access the library or review the library guides.
