Evaluointiprotokolla

An evaluaatioprotokolla, or evaluation protocol, is a structured plan that outlines the process for assessing the effectiveness, efficiency, or impact of a program, project, intervention, or system. It serves as a roadmap for evaluators, ensuring a systematic and rigorous approach to data collection and analysis. A well-defined protocol typically includes the evaluation's purpose and objectives, the specific questions the evaluation aims to answer, and the target audience for the findings.

The protocol also specifies the methodology to be employed, including the types of data to be collected (e.g., quantitative, qualitative), the sources of this data (e.g., surveys, interviews, observations, existing records), and the sampling strategies if applicable. It details the data collection instruments and procedures, outlining how they will be administered to ensure consistency and validity. Furthermore, an evaluaatioprotokolla describes the analytical techniques that will be used to interpret the collected data and how the findings will be reported, including the format and dissemination channels. Ethical considerations and potential limitations are also often addressed within the protocol. The purpose of the evaluaatioprotokolla is to enhance the credibility and utility of the evaluation by providing transparency and a clear framework for execution.
