Program Evaluation/Needs Assessment Resources on the WWW
Penn State – http://www.extension.psu.edu/evaluation/
Rich list of topics – more than seventy "tip sheets" that provide concise, useful answers to evaluation/needs assessment questions.
American Evaluation Association Extension Education Evaluation Topical Interest Group - http://danr.ucop.edu/eee-aea/
See the section "Hear It from the Board" for short but useful "tip" sheets.
Program Development and Evaluation Resources - A Project of the Southern Region Program and Staff Development Committee - http://www.ca.uky.edu/agpsd/soregion.htm Includes primarily Extension resources not necessarily just from the southern states extension region. Several links are out-of-date. For Texas links check for corresponding publications from Wisconsin. This site is also very useful for locating "state" program planning and evaluation sites.
Virginia - http://www.ext.vt.edu/vce/support/ Virginia appears to be finishing up a statewide situation analysis and issues identification process. Includes both program development and evaluation resources.
Wisconsin - http://www.uwex.edu/ces/pdande/ - Program Development and Evaluation – Includes training modules on what is sometimes mistakenly called "the" logic model (inputs, activities, outputs, outcomes). Includes situation analysis and priority setting modules.
