Environmental Education Evaluation: Reinterpreting Education as a Strategy for Meeting Mission
Heimlich, Joe E.
Evaluation and Program Planning, v33 n2 p180-185 May 2010
Critical consideration of the role of environmental education in meeting conservation outcomes is increasingly necessary for environmental agencies and organizations. Evaluation can help move organizations to alignment between educational goals and organizational mission. Moving theory-driven evaluation into mission-based program theory, this chapter examines the ways in which educational goals can and should be linked to conservation outcomes for an agency or organization.
