Abstract
In her chapter, Dr Jean King defined program evaluation and project evaluation in the following way:
Programs are typically long-term ongoing activities representing coordinated efforts planned to achieve major educational goals (e.g., a school district’s language arts program) .… Educational projects, by contrast, are short-term activities with specific objectives and allocated resources (e.g., professional development training for a school faculty) (Nevo, 1995, p. 119) .… the process of evaluating educational programs and projects, however, [is the same and need not be separated].
