Health Care -- Tailoring and Planning Evaluation
Research shows that there are several basic considerations to be addressed in any effective program evaluation. Those considerations include identification of the evaluation's stakeholders, given the program to be evaluated. These stakeholders can contribute greatly to the evaluation's focus and can benefit considerably from the evaluation's collected data/findings.
The Considerations that would Potentially Guide Evaluation Planning for the California Tobacco Control Program (CTCP)
Evaluation planning for the CTCP could be potentially guided by considerations of: who should be involved in operating the evaluation; whether the evaluation should be an outcome evaluation or a process evaluation; whether the evaluation's top priority should be revealing weaknesses of the program or developing lessons for future improvement (Aubel, 1995, p. 20). Since the CTCP'S program is a developmental program, its interests would appear to be best served by the learning process approach. (Aubel,...
13). As mentioned previously, the CTCP's established practices and relatively long history lend themselves to "process evaluation" (Anonymous, Common conceptual and methodological frameworks - Powerpoint presentation, n.d.), which Powell defines as "looking at how something happens rather than or in addition to examining outputs and outcomes" (Powell, 2006). In contrast to the more traditional "Blueprint Approach," the "Learning Process Approach" features: a purpose of measuring quantitative achievement and developing lessons that can be integrated into the program; a scope of data collection that uses holistic analysis, allows additional questions and dimensions to arise through a continual learning process; data collection methods that are both qualitative and quantitative and use subjective judgment; delegate responsibility for data collection to program stakeholders, including the program's own managers and implementers (Aubel, 1995, p. 15). In addition, through the article of Metcalf et al. focuses on Genetics Education, they are…
Health Care -- Tailoring and Planning Evaluation - Rewrite The required readings for this course provide definitions and parameters for several types of evaluation. Review of those readings supports the use of the "learning process" and "process evaluation" for the World Health Organization's Tobacco Free Initiative (TFI). Planning and conducting the evaluation entails three key phases and the assistance of multiple stakeholders to ensure the effectiveness of the evaluation. The type of
There is no formula to fall back on when trying to address the real needs and perceived needs of various elements in the organizational hierarchy: hence the challenge for the administrator. The administrative budget is often the aspect of the online learning environment most tempting to "skimp" upon, given that administrative savings are supposed to be one of the benefits of the online environment, "Good management means extensive planning and
Successful Implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems in Public Settings: A Synthesis of Current Literature As organizations both private and public continue to grow in complexity and sheer size, enterprise resource planning (ERP) has become an increasingly important function in order to effectively and efficiently carry out operations an ensure stability and longevity. The use of information technologies and a variety of different theoretical frameworks has been applied to ERP problems
The only medical issues documented in this report are acute findings that potentially relate to the assault or preexisting medical factors that could influence interpretation of findings. Separate medical documentation by examiners and other involved clinicians follows a standard approach -- address acute complaints, gather pertinent historical data, describe findings, and document treatment and follow-up care; and (2) Ensuring the accuracy and objectivity of medical forensic reports by seeking
Additional reasons include tracking key authors who contribute to the journals and magazines on the site as well. The content is constantly changing and of high quality. What information was expected to be found and was not there it would be expected to find more analytical frameworks and constructs specifically focusing on how to apply the strategic planning concepts discussed. One would expect to find for example an analysis of Dr.
Moreover, it is unclear whether Jim has attempted to reestablish any meaningful contact with his children; rather, his entire focus has been on becoming a better person. While there is certainly nothing wrong with that goal in and of itself (it is, after all, a universal human quality), he appears to have pursued this goal to the total exclusion of making any substantive reparations to his family. Finally, it is
