Introduction
The evaluation plan was originally developed by EST Education
Centre to support the POTENS project teams in the efficient
delivery of all project work packages. Its main purpose is
to design an evaluation procedure which will help to assess
the degree to which the project has met its aims. The outline
of the plan was presented at the first partners meeting in
Bielsko-Biala, Poland in November 2008 and it has subsequently
been updated on the basis of the partners' input. It
thus provides an outline of the evaluation procedure agreed
by the partnership and comprises the following:
Project objectives
The approved POTENS proposal refers to various objectives
set in different parts of the bid. All the relevant sections
have been analyzed with a view to presenting a clear outline
of the key objectives which are specific, time bound and
measurable.
Roles and responsibilities
The plan defines roles and responsibilities of all partners
in reference to monitoring the project activities at their
sites and gathering respective evaluation data.
Evaluation specification
For each of the project objectives the specification defines
a baseline against which to measure the progress of the project
and sets input, output and impact measures. The main purpose
here is to specify what targets are to be achieved, when
and on what basis they are to be evaluated.
Evaluation supporting materials
In order to facilitate the process of gathering the evaluation
data the partners are provided with templates of questionnaires
to survey the views of the beneficiaries. The templates guarantee
a certain uniformity of feedback which makes it measurable
and comparable.
The final evaluation report will be written at the end of
the project. Hence the evaluation plan should be used during
the lifetime of the project as a tool to monitor its progress
and assure that the dissemination campaign targets the audience
of adult educators and psychodrama trainers with information
on well developed products and pedagogy.
