Skolits, Gary J.; Richards, Jennifer – Canadian Journal of Program Evaluation, 2009
This article argues that intervention pilot test evaluations have focused insufficient attention on the measurement of project fidelity and the subsequent use of fidelity results for (a) interpreting variations in project outcomes and (b) understanding the rationale for teachers' deviations from implementation protocols. The authors report on the…

In 16 chapters, prominent National…
