Meaningful Research, Evaluation, & Data Collection, Session 2: How to Evaluate

This session is designed to provide a review of some very basic tools for evaluation that anyone with access to a spreadsheet can use—including, logic models (the beating heart of any good program and its evaluation); easy guides to using spreadsheets for data; how to do surveys at low-, medium-, and high-tech levels; how to pose evaluation questions that can be answered; and what’s actually “smart” about SMART measures and what is not “smart” about them.
