Proceedings of the 1979 WESTAR Evaluation Workshop, Jan. 31-Feb. 2, 1979
Seven papers from a 1979 workshop address program evaluation factors (specifically planning) in the Handicapped Children's Early Education Program. R. Sheehan ("Evaluation Strategies in Early Childhood Education: A National Perspective") summarizes the state of the art and lists seven guidelines, such as that evaluation efforts must reflect qualitative changes in children's performance. In "Practical Program Evaluation: Many Problems and a Few Solutions," O. White details the advantages of curriculum referenced approaches to evaluation, while R. Sheehan ("Measuring Child Progress: Large Group Design and Norm Referenced Alternatives") reviews other evaluation designs. M. Stevens and R. Kroth address problems and issues in "Evaluating Parent Training Programs: Some Considerations." Inservice training is the focus of "Evaluating Staff Development" by L. Lynch and V. Lynch. The final paper ("Evaluating the Impact of Demonstration and Dissemination Activities" by P. Bradley) considers components of impact evaluation studies and describes conditions which should be met before undertaking one.
