[Okgrantsmanship] June 11 Evaluation Workshop

[Mason, Linda]

Dear Group,

The Structuring Educational Evaluation Programs workshop has six
registered participants, so be sure to attend or you will reduce the
group significantly! We need all of you for a decent discussion. The
format will be dialogue about materials provided as examples and
critique of some evaluation plans, all around a table. I believe it will
be productive for those who attend. If you want to bring colleagues,
feel free to do so! The agenda is included below:

 

Structuring Educational Evaluation Programs

June 10, 2010

This session will be an overview of a program evaluation approach to any
project, specifying the formats of descriptions to be included in a
program grant proposal and a research grant proposal, and analyzing the
differences. The Structuring Educational Evaluation Programs will be
from 9:00 am to 12:00 noon. The last hour will be spent in critiquing
sample evaluation plans taken from grant proposals.
