The proposed taxonomy of tasks to be performed in an educational evaluation system encompasses tasks appropriate for evaluators, members of an evaluation unit, and members of facilitation and coordination units. The taxonomy classifies and specifies tasks for (1) developing a climate for evaluation; (2) selecting decision situations, selecting evaluation strategies, and developing evaluation plans; (3) organizing, assessing, and modifying evaluation and managerial plans; (4) selecting data-gathering techniques and collecting data; (5) interpreting, judging, and reporting outcomes; (6) information processing, dissemination, and utilization; (7) administering and coordinating activities in an evaluation and coordination system; and (8) providing facilitation services.
