Nagel, Stuart; Long, John – Evaluation Review, 1985
Policy Goal Percentaging Analysis is a microcomputer program which can perform a variety of useful decision-making analyses. The components of the program, its applications, and limitations are examined. The program is related to the field of multicriteria decision-making and is most useful to program evaluators. (DWH)

Brookshire, Robert G. – Evaluation Review, 1986
This article discusses the hardware and software components of three workstations suitable for evaluation researchers, one for those on a limited budget, one for professional researchers, and one for a research team or department. Prices range from $3,000 to $30,000. A wide variety of workstation possibilities is illustrated. (Author/BS)

Costa, Crist H. – 1985
Evaluators, by the nature of their work, must be concerned with data management activities ranging from the collection and recording of data to the analyses, summation, and presentation of those data. Though word processing has been cited as the most frequently used microcomputer package by educational evaluators, spreadsheets are among the most…

Sherrill, Sam – Evaluation and Program Planning, 1990
Microcomputer-based imaging technology reestablishes the direct link between evaluation and environmental design by allowing evaluators and urban designers to visually explore and evaluate alternative simulations of design proposals. Microcomputer hardware and software requirements and the use of imaging technology at the university level are…

Gray, Peter J. – 1984
This guide discusses four types of microcomputer-based communication programs that could prove useful to evaluators: (1) the direct communication of information generated by one computer to another computer; (2) using the microcomputer as a terminal to a mainframe computer to input, direct the analysis of, and/or output data using a statistical…

Deck, Dennis; Coe, Merilyn – 1985
Designed for educational evaluators, this paper discusses reasons for the growing concern with linking or interfacing computers for information sharing; compares three major approaches to linking; and discusses the implications of each. An initial overview presents three linking applications in educational evaluation: (1) linking microcomputers…
