This guidebook is designed to help school districts plan evaluations of their curriculum program. It is divided into four major sections. The first section presents a case study based on the experiences of a school district that used this handbook in planning an evaluation. The second section reproduces the set of forms that the school district planning group completed. The third section gives brief instructions for completing the seven forms. The last section offers advice on how to select a technical consultant who can assist in conducting the planned evaluation. Finally, Appendix A contains master copies of the forms to be completed in planning the evaluation; Appendix B offers a set of checklists to be used in completing certain forms. (Author/LD)
