Abstract	The handbook is divided into two parts, Perspectives and Practice, each of which is further divided into five sections. ... In the first part, the perspectives of evaluation are presented in five major domains: ... The opening section deals with perspectives on educational evaluation by examining its theoretical underpinnings [and analyses various theoretical approaches] . ... Section 2 focuses on evaluation methods [describing some approaches]. ... The chapters in Section 3 provide in- depth analyses on how evaluators can ensure that their findings will be used. ... Section 4 [sheds light on the evaluation profession; it is acknowledged that] the evaluation field has made progress towards professionalization, yet the effort is still immature and in need of much further thought and serious development. ... Section 5 [regards] the social and cultural context of educational evaluation. ... Contributions for the section make clear that evaluation practices are heavily influenced by a nation's resources and employment of technology, as well as by local customs, traditions, laws, mores and ideology.
