Text

An important aspect of this evaluation will be to provide early and consistently often feedback to program implementers. As shown in the preceding discussion in this task, we offer early feedback memoranda concerning program theories and tracking systems and to gather responses from implementers. The feedback should be a two-way process in which the evaluators offer information and recommendations and the program implementers have an opportunity to respond. This must be done in an open and transparent way so that the evaluators can maintain the “arms-length” relationship. We propose to provide similar early feedback from other tasks that are identified below. In addition, we propose periodic information sharing sessions (quarterly or more often, perhaps monthly) in which implementers and evaluators provide information to each others. Implementers would be expected to share program experiences and information about changes to programs. Evaluators would characterize preliminary findings.
