Evaluation in a Nutshell 3e provides practical guidance on when and how to evaluate programs, and the range of evaluation designs and research methods that can be used to evaluate different projects and program types. New to this edition:new chapter on the evaluation of natural experiments and policynew frameworks and methods for the evaluation of scaled-up interventionsupdated materials on new research design used to address program effectiveness. Written by internationally recognised leaders in the field, all sections have been thoroughly revised and updated, while maintaining the concise, accessible style of the previous editions. This book will guide students in developing the core skills necessary for valuable and practical evaluations.
