Activity 7

This document discusses monitoring and evaluating community projects. It provides steps to monitor a project as a student leader, including establishing goals and indicators, making a plan, tracking progress, and determining roles. For evaluation, it discusses evaluating as a participant by asking questions and consulting partners. It also discusses evaluating implementation to understand how well a project was carried out. The document prefers participatory evaluation to give beneficiaries a voice. It recommends ongoing evaluation to improve learning and project quality by helping managers achieve objectives.

Activity 7

EVALUATION:

1. Differentiate monitoring from evaluating

Monitoring is the systematic process of regularly observing and recording the actions
carried out in a project to ensure that they are in line with the enterprise's objectives.
Monitoring considers the most efficient use of resources in order to aid managers in
making sensible decisions. It keeps track of the project's progress and assesses the
project's or program's quality against predetermined criteria and ensures that defined
standards are followed. While, by comparing the output to a set of standards, evaluation
is defined as an objective and rigorous review of a current or completed project to
determine its relevance, effectiveness, impact, and sustainability. It is the process of
making a value judgement on a person's degree of performance or achievement of
specific goals. In a nutshell, evaluation is a process that evaluates, tests, and measures the
design, implementation, and outcomes of a project or programmed in relation to its goals.
To determine the difference between the actual and desired outcome, it can be done both
qualitatively and quantitatively. The data gathered throughout the monitoring phase is
used to analyze each area of the project, determine its efficiency, and alter inputs as
needed.

2. As student leader of CWTS how are you going to monitor the

program or project you have implemented in the community? Devise

steps in monitoring your project.

 Determine the program's goals and objectives.


 Establish Indicators
 Make a plan or an outline.
 Determine how you'll keep track of the project.
 Examine reports
 Provide updates on your progress.
 Determine the roles and responsibilities.
 Determine your objectives and expectations.

3. Evaluation needs to be a constant process built into all levels of a

program.

a. As a participant, how are you going to evaluate the program?


It's also crucial to realize that for those of us striving to better our communities,
evaluation isn't a new activity. In fact, we constantly evaluate the quality of our work by
asking questions, consulting with partners, making judgements based on input, and then
using those judgments to better our work. When the stakes are modest, this style of
informal assessment may suffice. When the stakes are higher when a significant amount
of time or money is at stake, or when a large number of people may be affected - it may
make sense for your organization to adopt more official, visible, and defensible
evaluation procedures.

b. As an implementor (CWTS-LTS student), how are you going to

evaluate the program?

While Extension educators recognize the importance of evaluating programmed offers, they
place less focus on understanding programmed execution. Simply analyzing programmed impact
without a thorough grasp of the degree to which a programmed was truly implemented can result
in incorrect findings. Extension educators can have a more holistic perspective of their
programmed and a greater ability to find and share excellent programmed practices by
effectively evaluating both programmed impacts and evaluation.

4. Which do you prefer, a participatory evaluation or a non-participatory

evaluation? Explain your choice.

Line workers and beneficiaries, in particular, are given the opportunity to be full partners in
defining the direction and efficacy of a project through participatory evaluation. It can provide
individuals who are frequently ignored a voice.

5. If you are going to evaluate the program/project implementation, what

will you use an ongoing evaluation or a concluding evaluation? Explain

your answer.
The purpose of process/implementation evaluation is to see if programmed activities
were carried out as planned. Evaluation assesses if the program's outcomes or outcome
objectives are being met in the target population. Process/implementation evaluation analyses
whether programmed activities are being carried out as intended. Effectiveness evaluation
assesses the progress of the program's outcomes or outcome targets in the target population to
determine its effects on the target population. Ongoing assessment is considered to improve
learning opportunities and comprehension, as well as project quality, by assisting project
managers in accomplishing project objectives. So, you'll know if your program is reaching the
intended audience and if your outreach efforts are working to engage the people you want to
reach.
