This week we continue to build on the fundamentals by recalling inquiry modes and methods. This week we will build on description as an inquiry. You are also introduced to concepts and issues on economic evaluation. These topics are important to help you establish a foundation for your research project. Some important information was reviewed to guide you in describing the activities of a program, thesurrounding contexts, the resources involved, and describing the characteristics of stakeholders in the program as well as to identify the expected short-term, intermediate, and long-term outcomes.
USE THE ATTACHED POWERPOINT/ ANALYZE , IT IS HELPFUL INFORMATION ABOUT THE TOPIC
Using the fundamentals from this week and following the guidelines for the evaluation project Download guidelines for the evaluation project – write the introduction for your evaluation project in paragraph format and incorporate the following:
- What public issue/problem(s) does the program address?
- Why is this considered a problem?
- Who are the target of the program’s services?
- How is the program delivered (i.e., resources, activities/services, and outputs)?
- What are the expected results (i.e., short term outcomes, intermediate outcomes, long term comes)?
- What are the hypothesized effects and relationships? In other words, how are the inputs supposed to result in changes in outputs or outcomes.
Correct grammar, spelling, and punctuation are expected. This is an introduction to your evaluation project, so adherence to the most recent APA standards are expected – see APA Guidelines under Helpful Hints.
