Project Evaluation Report.
Butler, Eugene W.
"Project Evaluation" was conceived to aid evaluation systems in Massachusetts community colleges by accomplishing three main tasks: (1) determining the current status of evaluation efforts; (2) piloting an appropriate program evaluation system and adapting it to Massachusetts; and (3) developing a uniform placement and follow-up system. To meet these goals, all fifteen colleges first conducted an institutional evaluation inventory. Information concerning placement and follow-up studies, self-evaluation activities, and studies of attrition and enrollment trends was solicited. Next, two campuses were chosen from five volunteers to participate in on-site team visitation to selected program areas, using the California Community College Occupational Programs Evaluation System (COPES). Finally, placement and follow-up recommendations were made and short and long-range data questionnaires were developed and piloted. Extensive appendices include a complete COPES model and questionnaire, system-wide program frequency data, pilot study program information, the institutional research survey, data pilot questionnaires, and letters, schedules, and other material pertinent to the project.
