Brown, Robert D. – CEDR Quarterly, 1980
The author proposes a role model for evaluators to be added to the numerous existing models. He presents the evaluator as an artist/painter/musician, suggesting that the evaluator's perception of an educational program's effectiveness can be expressed by a single "painting," rather than by a lengthy written report.
