TYPES OF EVALUATION

TYPES OF EVALUATION

1. FORMATIVE EVALUATION

   • Is used before program design or implementation. It generates data on the need for the program and develops the baseline for subsequent monitoring.
     • uses
       • When starting a new program To assist in the early phases of program development

2. PROCESS EVALUATION

   • Occurs once program implementation has begun, and it measures how effective your program’s procedures are.
     • uses
       • Focuses on program implementation Determines whether specific program strategies were implemented as planned

3. OUTCOME EVALUATION

   • Is conventionally used during program implementation. It generates data on the program’s outcomes and to what degree those outcomes are attributable to the program itself.
     • uses
       • ocuses on the changes in comprehension, attitudes, behaviors, and practices that result from program activities Can include both short- and long-term results

4. ECONOMIC EVALUATION

   • Is used during the program’s implementation and looks to measure the benefits of the programs against the costs.
     • uses
       • Helps make early improvements to the program Allows project managers to refine or improve the program

5. IMPACT EVALUATION

   • Studies the entire program from beginning to end (or at whatever stage the program is at), and looks to quantify whether or not it has been successful.
     • Uses
       • To influence policy To see impact in longitudinal studies with comparison groups

6. SUMMATIVE EVALUATION

   • is conducted after the program’s completion or at the end of a program cycle. It generates data about how well the project delivered benefits to the target population.
     • uses
       • Provides data to justify continuing the program Generates insights into the effectiveness and efficiency of the program

7. Goals-Based Evaluation

   • is usually done towards the end of the program or at previously agreed-upon intervals. Development programs often set ‘SMART’ targets — Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timely
     • uses
       • To show that the program is meeting its initial benchmarks To review the program and its progress
