Completed evaluation to critique

    Select a completed evaluation to critique. The Better Evaluation and American Evaluation Association websites are good starting points to find a critique. It is also useful to do a search on google in an area of interest, such as “evaluations of early childhood programs” or “Evaluation of international education initiative” to find an evaluation. Academic journals may have brief summaries but you often have to go to the funding organization or the program organization’s website to find the complete evaluation.

It should include the following: An overview of the program The purpose of the evaluation, including who wants the evaluation and how will the evaluation be used?
