Welcome to Boy Scout Troop 45's Home Page (The Best of the Best)
Evaluating When a program or project has been completed, it is important to find out how well the objectives were met and if improvements can be made for the future. An evaluation should reflect * the effect on the total group and * the effect on each individual member. Six simple questions can be used to evaluate almost any project or program. * The first three questions relate to the group's success in carrying out the project. * The second three questions relate to individual group members. 1. Did the job get done? 2. Was it done right? 3. Was it done on time? 4. Did everybody take part? 5. Did they enjoy themselves? 6. Do they want more? Evaluations should be done both * immediately at the end of an event and * a few weeks later. Evaluation is a continual process as a project is under way. * For an evaluation of a work in progress, the six questions are changed somewhat. 1. Are we getting the job done? 2. Are we doing it right? 3. Are we on schedule? 4. Is everybody involved? 5. Are they working well and satisfied with what they're doing? 6. Do they want to continue? * If the answer to any of these questions is no, or if there is any doubt, the leader needs to take some action.
