|
Most Frequently Used: Nonequivalnet Control Groups andInterrupted Time Series Design
|
|
Nonequivalent Control Groups Design
|
Difference: is it includes a Control group
Purpose: is to evaluate effectiveness of some program treatment the 2 groups can't be randomly assigned Advantage: can look at changes from pre to post test, can check if groups are equivalent If IV group has an effect, then experimental group should show greater change |
|
Interrupted Time Series Design
|
quasi experimental design: program or treatment is evaluated by measuring performance several times prior to the institution of the program and several times after the prgram has been put into effect
|
|
Archival Research
|
research method in which already existing records are examined to test some hypothesis
|
|
Program Evaluation: Includes::
|
1. Needs analysis
2. Formative evaluation 3. Summative evaluation 4. Cost effectiveness analysis |
|
Needs Analysis
|
(before) form of program evaluation that occurs before a program beings and determines whether the program is needed
Asks: population that would engage? Data comes from: surveys, interviews, statistical data from agencies |
|
Formative Evaluation
|
(during) monitors the functioning of a program while it's operating to see if it's funcitoning as planned
Asks: implemented as planned? how being used? reaching target population? Data comes from: questionnaires, interviews, observational studies, record analysis |
|
Summative Evaluation
|
(after) completed at program close; attempts to determine effectiveness in solving problem it was planned to fix
Asks: intended outcomes being realized? Data comes from: true and quasi experiments, single case designs |
|
Cost Effectiveness Analysis
|
monitors actual costs and relates them to effectiveness of program outcomes
Asks: program worth it? Cost must be outweighed by benefits |
