Program Evaluation: Concepts, Models, Methodologies, Implementation, and Analysis for Educational Program Development

By Yuni Rhamayanti, Torang Siregar, M. Yakub Iskandar

How can we know whether an educational program truly works? How can we determine whether its objectives have been achieved, its implementation is effective, and its outcomes provide meaningful benefits for learners, teachers, institutions, and society? Program Evaluation: Concepts, Models, Methodologies, Implementation, and Analysis for Educational Program Development provides a comprehensive guide to understanding and conducting systematic program evaluation in educational settings. The book connects evaluation theory with practical research procedures, enabling readers to move from identifying evaluation needs and formulating questions to collecting data, analyzing evidence, interpreting findings, and making informed decisions. The book explores major approaches and models of program evaluation, including CIPP, Kirkpatrick, Goal-Free Evaluation, Responsive Evaluation, Discrepancy Evaluation, Logic Model, Outcome Evaluation, and Impact Evaluation. It also discusses qualitative, quantitative, and mixed-methods approaches, providing readers with methodological alternatives for evaluating diverse educational programs. Particular attention is given to evaluation design, instrument development, data collection, validity and reliability, qualitative trustworthiness, statistical analysis, interpretation of findings, and evaluation reporting. The book also introduces advanced measurement perspectives for addressing issues of fairness, rater severity, item difficulty, and potential measurement bias. Designed for students, lecturers, researchers, teachers, educational administrators, program managers, evaluators, and policymakers, this book offers both conceptual foundations and practical guidance for conducting credible and useful evaluations. More than a book about measuring program success, this is a guide to using evidence for learning, accountability, improvement, innovation, and better educational decision making. Whether you are learning the fundamentals of program evaluation, conducting an academic research project, evaluating an educational intervention, or seeking evidence for institutional improvement.
