Evaluation Plan

Lee/Owens says that there are five steps for creating an evaluation plan: 1) Complete the problem statement section, 2) Complete the solution section, 3) Complete the objectives section, 4) Complete the components of the evaluation plan for each level at which you will evaluate the project, and 5) Complete the executive summary.
In step one, you want to define what the purpose of this plan is and why it is important to be fixed or discussed. In step two, you want to give some ideas on how to fix the problem. In step three, you want to discussed how you want the outcomes in the end to be and how your suggested ideas will get you to that end goal. In step four, you need to complete the following levels that are appropriate for your plan.
Lee/Owens list these levels and actions for each level:
Level 1: Reaction
-Survey construction -Data collection -Data analysis -Expected results -Reporting results
Level 2: Knowledge
-Test construction -Data collection -Data analysis -Expected results -Reporting results
Level 3: Performance
-Observation study construction -Data collection -Data analysis -Expected results -Reporting results
Level 4: Impact
-Study construction -Data collection -Data analysis -Expected results -Reporting results
In step five, you want to restate your problem and briefly rediscuss the purpose of this plan. Then you want summerize and discuss all of your findings from this plan.
