DETERMINE FEEDBACK CHANNELS
A systematic feedback loop involves quarterly
feedback to and from the steering committee during
the implementation and yearly evaluation reports
thereafter. Ultimately the final summative evaluation
will report on this program’s ability to
achieve the stated purpose and its potential for
replication and or expansion.
Attention will be given to interpretation of
data collected by assessment, and to interpreting
outcomes to stakeholders, incorporating adjustments
for process improvement at key junctures of the
project. Observation assessments are discussed
with staff regularly for immediate formative feedback
and improvements where necessary.
The process for evaluation is outlined for the
Board and data collection methodology for assessment
and evaluation are in place. Care is given to
ensure that material development is assessed and
evaluated with continuous improvement mechanisms
built into the feedback loop. The third party
evaluator on a monthly basis reviews this work,
with quarterly reports to the Board.
Module development will be assessed with evaluations
upon the completion of modules. This evaluation
incorporates early feedback loops for all stakeholders
to incorporate modifications in the early stages.
This planning stage of the evaluation is formative
and aids in establishing metrics for the project,
which are understood, accepted, and championed
by stakeholders.
The formative evaluation involves ongoing project
activities and provides a feedback loop for all
stakeholders to participate in a plan-do-check-act
loop, which ensures program monitoring, modification
and enhancement throughout the process. It involves
both implementation evaluation and progress evaluation.
