Everyday Evaluation on the Run , by Yoland Wadsworth. 89 pages. Published in 1991 by Action Research issues Association (Incorporated), 4th Floor, Ross House, 247-251 Flinders Lane, Melbourne, Victoria, Australia 3000. No email or web address given (it was 1991). Chapters: 1. Introduction, 2. A conceptual framework, 3. Two approaches to evaluation, 4. Doing evaluation, 5. The evaluation industry's toolbox of models and techniques. Plus a short annotated bibliography. Designed for audiences with Australia, focused on evaluation of human services delivery, provided by grant funded agencies and programmes. "...the assumption is that readers are best served, not so much by a 'cookbook', but rather by describing some of the underlying concepts and principles". "We want this guide not only to make evaluation understandable, but also to give readers a sense of the satisfaction that can come from this kind of activity. There can be a real feeling of achivement and purpose from a self-directed learning effort that leads to services that are more 'spot-on' and responsive to users". Funded by the Victorian Government Social Justice Strategy.
