Kathryn McEwan; Melissa Girling; Angela Bate; Joanne Atkinson; Amanda Clarke; Sonia Dalkin – International Journal of Social Research Methodology, 2024
A crucial part of theory-driven realist thinking is retroduction, the process of looking backwards for explanation of how and why things may be. Conducted early in the realist evaluation process, it provides a foundation for evidenced 'theory gleaning'. Despite retroduction being an inherent part of the realist process, it is often 'hidden' in…

Lauronen, Juha-Pekka – Research Evaluation, 2022
This article addresses the debate on pre-evaluative choices of impact depictions and the forms of responses between applicants and funders.

Clapham, Andrew – Journal of Educational Change, 2023
Educators working in museums, zoos, and botanic gardens are increasingly required to demonstrate impact. These requirements position 'performative evaluation' as the dominant model, one which also acts as a political, non-neutral, and managerial form of accountability. In contrast, 'practice evaluation' is intended to be democratic, dialogic, and…

Floyd, Alan – Professional Development in Education, 2022
Over recent years, the professional development review process has risen in importance in universities with such exercises being shown to have a positive effect on student learning, staff motivation, recruitment and retention. However, they may also be perceived as a controlling mechanism and part of a culture of 'performativity', which implies a…

Social work education programs in the U.S. are accredited by the Council on Social Work Education.

Justin Rogers-Cooper; Rejitha Nair; Arthur O'Keeffe – Intersection: A Journal at the Intersection of Assessment and Learning, 2024
In this essay, we explore program reviews as important sites for the tension Peter Ewell defines at the core of outcomes assessment practices: that is, between assessing for accountability and assessing for improvement. We address this tension through the example of our Industrial Design program on our urban campus in New York City. In exploring…

Given the calls to reinforce the accountability of education programmes, this review evaluated studies that evaluated K-12 global citizenship education (GCED) programmes to assess the evidence that such programmes improved the students' global learning.

Cochran-Smith, Marilyn; Reagan, Emilie Mitescu – Journal of Teacher Education, 2022
Since the early 2000s, accountability and evaluation have been regarded by policymakers as key mechanisms for "fixing" teacher education and by many teacher education leaders as vehicles for elevating the status of the profession and uniting a fragmented field. Although educational inequity has been an enduring and endemic problem during…

The flexibility federal block grants provide recipients poses challenges for evaluation.
