When Policy Is Merely Promotion, by What Ethic Lives an Evaluator?

Stake, Robert

Studies in Educational Evaluation, v24 n2 p203-12 1998

Describes two evaluation studies that faced ethical problems because of an atmosphere of promotion and advocacy. One was the evaluation of a teachers' professional-development program, and the other was an evaluation of a federally funded youth sports program. The realization and resolution of ethical conduct must come from within the evaluator. (SLD)
