| Abstract | Program and/or course evaluation is, in fact, one of the essential aspects of any curriculum. It is a kind of quality control in which various aspects of an instructional program are explored. Program evaluation is an attempt in which different elements of a given curriculum are scrutinized in depth. To this end, an evaluator makes every effort to collect information from different sources such as students, teachers, administrators, course designers, program staff, and so on. Also, the evaluator tries to gather data through different procedures such as questionnaires, interviews, observations, course documentations etc. Collecting hybrid type of information helps increase validity and reliability of the study. The main concern of program evaluation is to ensure that acquisition is taking place, teaching techniques and strategies are useful, materials are relevant and interesting, resources are available and adequate, and so forth. In the beginning, program evaluation was merely quantitative and/or experimental in nature. However, with the passage of time it was realized that qualitative and/or natural approaches are more useful than laboratory-like artificial experimental methods. The important issue in any course evaluation is to bring about some necessary changes. This article tries to elaborate on the preliminary aspects of program evaluation. (As Provided). |
