The leading text that covers both the theory and practice of
evaluation in one engaging volume has now been revised and updated
with additional evaluation approaches (such as mixed methods and
principles-focused evaluation) and new methods (such as
technologically based strategies). The book features examples of
small- and large-scale evaluations from a range of fields, many
with reflective commentary from the evaluators; helpful checklists;
and carefully crafted learning activities. Major theoretical
paradigms in evaluation--and the ways they inform methodological
choices--are explained. Readers learn effective strategies for
clarifying their own theoretical assumptions; working with
stakeholders; developing questions; using quantitative,
qualitative, and mixed methods designs; selecting data collection
and sampling strategies; analyzing data; and communicating and
utilizing findings. The new companion website provides extensive
recommended online resources and tools, organized by chapter. New
