Assumptions Underlying Evaluation Models

Ernest R. House

Year: 1978 Journal:   Educational Researcher Vol: 7 (3)Pages: 4-12   Publisher: SAGE Publishing

Abstract

One way of understanding evaluation is to compare the numerous evaluation models with one another. There are many possibilities for comparison, but perhaps the most significant comparisons are those among the underlying theoretical assumptions on which the models are based. In this way, one might see how logically similar the models are to one another and determine what logical possibilities do and do not exist.
