Implementing A Web-Based Adaptive Senior Exit Survey For Undergraduates, Jeffrey P. Adams, Timothy F. Slater Apr 2001

Implementing A Web-Based Adaptive Senior Exit Survey For Undergraduates, Jeffrey P. Adams, Timothy F. Slater

Evaluation/Reflection

As part of an institution-wide reform initiative at Montana State University, an adaptive, senior exit survey was developed and delivered via the World Wide Web. Individualized surveys were automatically generated for students so that questions particular to specific major and non-major courses could be administered as well as questions regarding university services. The principle advantages of providing a survey in this format include the ability for students to enter extended student-supplied responses to questions using the keyboard, the use of sampling techniques to target questions to specific student groups, and the delivery of individualized survey results privately to department administrators.

Program Evaluation Principles & Practices, Northwest Health Foundation

Evaluation/Reflection

This handbook is provided by the Northwest Health Foundation as a framework for community organizations to use to evaluate and understand the effectiveness of their programs. It provides an overview of basic program evaluation principles and practices, and offers an approach to evaluation that will assist organizations in documenting their work -for themselves, for funders, and for others who are interested in issues of program impact and outcomes. The handbook is designed to complement the content of a Foundation-sponsored workshop on program evaluation, and can be used as a "stand-alone" guide for evaluation design and implementation.
