	Community Engagement Evaluation: Strategy: Strategy for community engagement evaluation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Evaluation as part of performance monitoring and reporting is generally referred to as summative evaluation or evaluation for accountability.
		Evaluation at this level attempts to both measure levels of community engagement with the Queensland Government and tie together community engagement outputs with intended policy outcomes across a spectrum of government programs and policies.
		This is generally referred to as formative evaluation or evaluation for development, and differs from summative evaluation in that the purpose of evaluation is not about reporting on performance to ensure accountability but rather to integrate learning and continuous improvement into the community engagement project/ program/ policy cycle.

	Evaluation strategy - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Applicative order (or leftmost innermost) evaluation refers to an evaluation strategy in which the arguments of a function are evaluated from left to right in a post-order traversal of reducible expressions (redexes).
		Call-by-value evaluation is the most common evaluation strategy, used in languages as far-ranging as C and Scheme.
		Under Church encoding, lazy evaluation of operators maps to non-strict evaluation of functions; for this reason, non-strict evaluation is sometimes referred to as "lazy".

	Eager evaluation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Eager evaluation or strict evaluation is the evaluation strategy in most traditional programming languages.
		In eager evaluation an expression is evaluated as soon as it gets bound to a variable.
		This is generally more efficient as a low-level strategy in simple programming languages, as it removes the need to build and manage intermediate data structures representing unevaluated expressions.

	Cancer - NCCCP - Guidelines for Planning - Section 8 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Evaluation plays an integral role throughout the planning process, providing a means of informing and assessing the planning process itself and the initiative as a whole.
		Evaluation activities that are conducted early in the planning process can inform the process; those activities conducted along the way help ensure that everything is unfolding according to plan and determine whether midcourse corrections are necessary.
		Although the focus in the Conduct Evaluation building block is on preparing for plan implementation and developing an evaluation strategy that can be incorporated into the comprehensive cancer control plan, the philosophy continues to be that evaluation of the planning process provides feedback regarding the implementation of the plan and the institutionalization of the initiative.

	GAO - Illegal Immigration: Southwest Border Strategy Results Inconclusive; More Evaluation Needed (Letter Report, ...
		Evaluating the overall effectiveness of the strategy for deterring illegal entry poses complex questions that would require a formal, rigorous plan for (1) collecting and analyzing consistent and reliable data on several different indicators related to the three expected results from the strategy and (2) examining their interrelationships.
		Although developing a formal evaluation plan and implementing a rigorous and comprehensive evaluation of the strategy may prove to be both difficult and potentially costly, without such an evaluation the Attorney General and Congress will have no way of knowing whether the billions of dollars invested in reducing illegal immigration have produced the intended results.
		We recognize that developing a formal evaluation plan and implementing a rigorous and systematic evaluation of the strategy could require a substantial investment of resources, in part because the needed data may not be presently available, thereby possibly requiring support for new data collection efforts.

	DRAFT
		This Evaluation Strategy is the first in a series of deliverables to be developed by the evaluation team.
		The objective of this evaluation is to understand how the Partner agencies work through the process and challenges of identifying and overcoming the institutional, technical, organizational, financial, contractual, and other related hurdles associated with this project.
		Because this evaluation of the RFC Project will be concluded before the system has been beta tested, it will not be possible to evaluate the Partners’ overall success in deploying the system and achieving predetermined revenue, operational, cost, and service objectives.

	Evaluation Conference
		In order to follow up the implementation of the strategies, it will not be enough to assess the success of models, or to retreat in the role of "providing support to schools and to education institutions." Evaluation will focus on the sustainability and systemic change achieved by programmes.
		External evaluations also usually present other substantiated findings and recommendations in terms of a predetermined evaluation brief, or that should be of interest to the stakeholders of the programme.
		Evaluation management, for the purpose of this discussion, involves the implementation of clear procedures for achieving both focus and clarity in terms of the purpose of an evaluation; the central evaluation questions; the selection of indicators and suitable methodologies; the interests of various stakeholders, and the expected evaluation outcomes.

	Evaluation Strategy
		The Evaluation Strategy in turn defines the processes and criteria to evaluate suppliers and their proposals and must be consistent with the rules applicable to the chosen procurement procedure.
		The evaluation strategy specifies the priorities for the project, its critical success factors, and the criteria against which suppliers will be assessed during procurement.
		The Evaluation Strategy documents the overall approach to evaluation for the project and provides the baseline against which all other evaluation documentation is measured.

	The Bush National Security Strategy: An Evaluation (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		Second, the Strategy fails to recognize the limitations of preemption as a policy tool or to specify when it should be used.
		This Strategy, the first by the Bush administration, is issued in accordance with the Goldwater-Nichols Department of Defense Reorganization Act of 1986, which mandated an annual report to Congress detailing the National Security Strategy of the United States.
		The Strategy's silence on the circumstances that justify preemption raises another and more likely danger: countries will embrace the preemption argument as a cover for settling their own national security scores, as Russia has already hinted at with Georgia.

		The strategy then specifies what argument positions must be simplified (in the order indicated by the list) before attempting simplification at the top with the equations for the top function symbol.
		Of course, operator evaluation strategies, while quite useful, are by design restricted in their scope of applicability to functional modules.
		Such general strategies are provided by Maude using reflection by means of internal strategy languages, in which strategies are defined by rewrite rules at the metalevel (see Section 10.5).

		Evaluating your accessibility requirements - where you need to comply with the Disabilities Discrimination Act, and how to achieve compliance.
		Evaluation and strategy are two of the most overlooked areas of interactive design: most people believe that they're just not necessary, unfortunately.
		Strategy is not a one-off event: it provides an objective basis for the work you carry out on your website, and it should change and adapt as your organisation and customers do.

	Parkin's Lot: Learning evaluation strategies take the mess out of measurement
		A learning evaluation strategy sets out what the high-level goals of evaluation are, and defines the approaches that a corporation will take to make sure that those goals are attained.
		Without an overall strategy to conform to, instructional designers may decide how and when to measure impact and what the nature of those measures will be, and will use definitions and methodologies that vary from course to course and curriculum to curriculum.
		Without an evaluation strategy, we are left floundering every time someone asks what our return on investment (ROI) on training is. I agree that calculating ROI is problematic, especially at the individual course level, and is often unnecessary.

	Evaluation - Inter-American Development Bank (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
		The central role of country capacity for managing and evaluating results was emphasized both by OVE in its 2002 report on evaluation capacity development, and by management in its recent discussion of the “external pillar” for the Medium-term Action Plan for Development Effectiveness.
		Many of the recommendations made in the country program evaluations for the next programming cycle were similar across countries, such as improving the results frameworks in programming documents, addressing debt dynamics, investing more in analytical work to understand the problems of the country and focusing Bank interventions more strategically.
		As a result of the seminar, agreements were reached to establish a regional observatory on evaluation capacities and further develop evaluation networks in the region.

		For the 32 objectives of the 1998 Strategy, 82 "Performance Targets," which are generally expressed as "outputs" or "outcomes," were established to measure progress.
		The impact evaluations are only one of many components that will be used to measure progress toward attaining the PME Impact and Performance Targets.
		With the impact evaluations, ONDCP expects to be able to detect changes in awareness of anti-drug messages presented through the media within a few months of the start of the Media Campaign, changes in perceptions and attitudes about drug use within 1 to 2 years, and changes in behavior within 2 to 3 years.

	ML programming language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		ML is often referred to as an impure functional language, because it permits side-effects, and therefore imperative programming, unlike purely functional programming languages such as Haskell.
		Features of ML include a call-by-value evaluation strategy, first class functions, automatic memory management through garbage collection, parametric polymorphism, static typing, type inference, algebraic data types, pattern matching, and exception handling.
		Unlike Haskell, ML uses eager evaluation, which means that all subexpressions are always evaluated.

	Evaluation Strategy
		Rather than attempting to model precisely the behaviour of the network, the evaluation is confined to that subset of the network's characteristics which are relevant to the application in question and which are suitable for this sort of abstract consideration.
		It is especially important to note that when the application of IP multicast is limited to a particular problem domain, the number of unknowns in any model will be greatly reduced - by comparison with all the courses of action which may be taken in an arbitrary multicast solution to an arbitrary problem.
		This is not believed to be a problem in the evaluation, because it is not essential to go down to such a level of detail.

		Evaluation of the Communities for Children initiative will increase understanding of which interventions work and why, their cost effectiveness, and the overall effectiveness of the service delivery model.
		The national evaluators will assist Facilitating Partners and their local evaluator partners to understand what is required to embed the Communities for Children evaluation plan into program management, and to tailor data collections to fit evaluation design requirements.
		Accordingly, the evaluation effort will be project-specific, but with an effort to achieve consistency where possible, in order to inform future policy decisions, eg by measuring the same outcomes the same way and capturing process evaluation information in similar ways.
