NDSU Extension Service Approach to Evaluation
While there are many theories and models for the study of evaluation, the NDSU Extension Service is making every effort to train staff in two specific approaches:
Kirkpatrick Model: 4 levels of Evaluation
- Evaluating Training Programs - The Four Levels - (MS PowerPoint) presented by Dr. Myron Eighmy
- The Kirkpatrick Four Levels: A Fresh Look After 50 Years - 1959 - 2009 - by Jim Kirkpatrick, PhD and Wendy Kayser Kirkpatrick
- Evaluation Summary Card
Participatory Evaluation: Engaging the learner in evaluation.
- Evaluation on a Shoestring - (MS PowerPoint) presented by Dr. Jean King
- Summary Chart of Interactive Strategies - (handout) by Dr. Jean King
These approaches provide a basic foundation for staff as the NDSU Extension Service moves forward to providing sound evaluation data for all programs.
Specific resources available throughout the Extension network can be found in the Evaluation Resources section of this website.
