Content
This Unit has been designed to equip students to analyse critically the approaches and processes of monitoring and evaluation in a community development context. Students will be able to understand the purposes, contexts and principles of monitoring and evaluation and to successfully complete monitoring and evaluation projects .
This unit examines ways of thinking about and doing monitoring and evaluation. It discusses the different approaches to monitoring and evaluation, the purposes of monitoring and evaluation and the contexts in which monitoring and evaluation take place. It considers answers to the questions: who, what, where, how and why? The analyses undertaken will draw out lines of tension and debate amongst monitoring and evaluation researchers. While students consider a range of ideas about monitoring and evaluation our orientation is based upon monitoring and evaluation in community development settings. Issues, approaches and processes will be illustrated in case studies.
