Synopsis

Evaluation Theory, Models, and Applications is designed for evaluators and students who need to develop a commanding knowledge of the evaluation field: its history, theory and standards, models and approaches, procedures, and inclusion of personnel as well as program evaluation. This important book shows how to choose from a growing array of program evaluation approaches. In one comprehensive resource, the authors have compiled vital information from the evaluation literature and draw on a wide range of practical experiences. Using this book, evaluators will be able to identify, analyze, and judge 26 evaluation approaches. The authors also show how to discriminate between legitimate and illicit approaches based on application of the Joint Committee Program Evaluation Standards.

“Stufflebeam and Shinkfield are renowned contributors to the field of evaluation. ... It would be difficult to come up with two names in evaluation with more credibility.. . . Evaluation Theory, Models, & Applications is a major contribution to the evaluation literature.... This text scores very high on both merit and worth. The text is high in quality and should serve both of its intended audiences well. The worth of the text is high because it has a combination of excellence and service addressing a need for well–done evaluations.”
