EDDD 8106 - Program Evaluation for Continuous Improvement

(5 credits)

Effective educational leaders must have the knowledge, skills, and dispositions to evaluate programs and make data-driven decisions to promote continuous improvement for all learners. In this course, education professionals use available data points and tools to evaluate the design, implementation, and program outcomes to determine a program's impact on the learner, family, and community. The results of the program evaluation may lead educational professionals to develop action plans that include the development of community outreach programs, grants, legislation/policy reform, professional development plans, or technology solutions. In this course, education professionals determine whether to recommend an improvement plan on an existing program or propose a new program or initiative.
