Literature Review & Evaluation Instructions
Using your selected program to answer the following (in about 3-4 pages):
1. Describe the motivation/goal of the evaluation. Simply stated, what is/are the "big question(s)" your evaluation hopes to answer?
2. Provide a list of specific questions the evaluation seeks to answer along with some explanation. These questions will obviously be more detailed and specific in nature than those in No. 1 above.
3. Have there been evaluations of similar or related programs (such as a similar research question in a different field)? If so, provide a brief narrative description and citations of background information.
Try to find relevant evaluations that may provide reference, assistance, or more information on your topic.
A minimum of 3-5 citations is ideal, and don't forget the have to be scholarly sources (Google Scholar is a good source).
Summarize previous knowledge on the topic in a smooth flowing narrative. Do not describe each article independently, this is NOT an annotated bibliography.
You may also wish to discuss various challenges in how to measure the success of this program. Use this exercise to find scales or measures to capture questions of interest to your evaluation. You can then borrow them for the next assignment.
