Evaluation Approaches and Orientations
Evaluation involves more than setting outcomes and determining data collection methods to measure the achievement of those outcomes. Just as prevention programming can be driven by one or more theories and approaches – and the programming will vary depending on the theories and approaches chosen – evaluation also varies depending on the approach or framework chosen to guide it.
Evaluation and Social Justice
What does evaluation have to do with social justice?
“A social justice-oriented evaluation examines the holistic nature of social problems. It seeks to increase understanding of the interdependency among individual, community, and society using a more judicious democratic process in generating knowledge about social problems and social interventions and using this knowledge to advance social progress” (Thomas & Madison, 2010, p. 572)
