Imagine you have been chosen to conduct an outcomes-based evaluation of an adult education program in an organization of your choice.
Step 1.
Choose an organization with an adult education program.
Step 2.
Work with the organization to conduct a preliminary study to obtain information on the organization and the potential needs in the adult learning program, specifically the instructional approaches and engagement strategies. In the preliminary study, identify and gather numerical data which can be used to determine need.
Step 3.
Compose a 3- to 5-page analysis paper (not including the title and references pages) that provides an overview of the organization, the adult education program, student and program outcomes, and the instruments used to measure the outcomes. Provide a few examples of the current numerical data. Outline the steps you will use to carry out the program evaluation. The steps should be specific to the adult education program you are evaluating.
