Categorization of Evaluation Techniques-1

There are three main evaluation techniques: goal-based, process-based, and outcome-based. Goal-based evaluation determines the extent to which a program has achieved its goals. Process-based evaluation assesses program activities, materials, and people reached. Outcome-based evaluation measures program effects on target populations by assessing progress on intended outcomes. There are also several types of evaluation methods, including formative, process, outcome, economic, impact, and summative evaluations, which are used at different stages of a program to assess needs, implementation, effects, costs/benefits, long-term impacts, and overall success.

Choosing an Evaluation method
What do you mean by word EVALUATION ?
Evaluation is a process that critically examines a program.
It involves collecting and analyzing information about a
program's activities, characteristics, and outcomes. Its purpose
is to make judgments about a program, to improve its
effectiveness, and/or to inform programming decisions.
In short it provides a systematic method to study a program,
practice, intervention, or initiative to understand how well it
achieves its goals.
Evaluation Techniques:
In recent there were many techniques discovered as well as
innovated depending upon the different user problems.
There are 3 main techniques from which the other techniques are
introduces i.e
1) Goal-based Evaluation

2) Process-based Evaluation

3) Outcome-based Evaluation
1) Goal-based Evaluation:
A goal based evaluation indicate if the priorities are were
correct or if any changes need to be made for future projects.
This approach relies heavily on stated program goals and
objectives, and as such it might overlook other aspects of the
program.
In short in, this Evaluation determines the extent to which a
program has achieved its goals.
The main motive of this evaluation is to achieve the goal.
2)Process based evaluation:
Process based evaluation are used to understand how a program
works and the way it delivers its results.
They access the activities that are being implemented, the
materials that are used and the people reached by the program.
The program evaluation process goes through four phases
— planning, implementation, completion, and dissemination and
reporting.
3)Outcome-based evaluation:
Outcome Evaluation measures program effects in the target population by
assessing the progress in the outcomes that the program is to address.
Outcome evaluations focus on difficult questions that ask what happened to
program participants and how much of a difference the program made for them.
Outcome evaluations assess the effectiveness of a program in producing
change.
Process evaluations help stakeholders see how a program outcome or impact
was achieved.
The process evaluation and outcome evaluation works side by side.
TYPES OF EVALUATION METHODS

Formative Evaluation
Process Evaluation
Outcome Evaluation
Economic Evaluation
Impact Evaluation
Summative Evaluation
FORMATIVE EVALUATION

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.
it also identifies areas of improvement and can give insights on what the program’s
priorities should be.
This helps project managers determine their areas of concern and focus, and increase
awareness of your program among the target population prior to launch.
Process Evaluation

Process evaluation occurs once program implementation has begun, and it measure how
effective your program’s procedures are.
The data it generates is useful in identifying inefficiencies and streamlining processes,
and portrays the program’s status to external parties.
Outcome Evaluation

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.
It is useful in measuring how effective your program has been and helps makes it more
effective in terms of delivering the intended benefit.
Economic Evaluation

Economic evaluation used during the program’s implementation and looks to measure
the benefits pf the programs against the costs.
Doing so generates useful quantitative data that measure the efficiency of the program.
This data like an audit, and provides useful information to sponsors and backers who
often want to see what benefits their money would bring to beneficiaries.
Impact Evaluation

Impact evaluation studies the entire program from beginning to end (or at whatever
stage the program is at), and looks to quantity whether or not it has been successful.
Focused on the long term impact, impact evaluation is useful for measuring sustained
changes brought about by the program or making policy changes or modification to the
program.
Summative Evaluation

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.
It is useful for program administrators to justify the project, show what they have
achieved, and lobby for project continuation or expansion.
Goals- Based Evaluation

Goals-based evaluation is usually done towards the end of the program at previously or
at previously agreed-upon intervals.
Development programs often set ‘SMART’ targets – specific . Measurable , attainable ,
relevant , and timely – and goals-based evaluation measures progress towards these
targets.
The evaluation is useful in presenting reports to program administrative and backers, as
it provides them information that was agreed upon at the start of program.
