as part of the CTE Research Network Lead. The six modules are:  \nModule 1: Understanding CTE Data and Why It Matters  \nModule 2: Using Data and Research to Improve CTE Programs  \nModule 3: CTE Program Evaluation: Why It Matters to Practitioners  \nModule 4: Using State Data to Partner With Researchers  \nModule 5: Using Research to Design Your CTE Program for Equity  \nModule 6: How to Communicate About Your CTE Program Using Research  \nThe work of the CTE Research Network Lead is supported by the Institute of Education Sciences at the  \nU.S. Department of Education with funds provided under the Carl D. Perkins Career and Technical Education Act through Grant R305N180005 to the American Institutes for Research. The work of the Network member projects is supported by the Institute. The opinions expressed are those of the authors and do not represent the views of the Institute or the U.S. Department of Education.  \nModule Description  \nProgram evaluation is a critical tool for assessing if your program is working or not and why. Have you ever wondered why you can have all the right components in place and the results can still be ineffective at meeting your goals? Programs want to know if what they are offering students makes a difference—do your programs have an impact on student outcomes? Program evaluation can help to determine if program efforts are successful so that you can communicate this information to key stakeholders. In this module, you will learn about program evaluation, when and why to conduct an evaluation, the different types of evaluations, logic models, what it means to have an impact, best practices in program evaluation, and the difference between program evaluation and performance measurement.  \nModule Objectives  \nAfter viewing this module, practitioners will be able to:  \n􀂃 Define impact and what it means to have an impact.  \n􀂃 Explain the difference between performance measures and program evaluation.  \n􀂃 Explain why program evaluation is valuable for career and technical education (CTE) programs.  \n􀂃 Understand the different types of evaluation and their purpose.  \n􀂃 Identify best practices in program evaluation.  \n􀂃 Learn what a logic model is and how to use one to assess program outcomes.  \nIntended Audienc","cbCaidj2MqSic9Wq","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidj2MqSic9Wq","pdf",2175261,18,"English","# Overview\n## Module Description\n## Module Objectives\n## Intended Audience\n## Materials\n## Time Requirements\n## Outline of Module\n## Facilitator’s Script/Notes for Module\n## References and Resources","[{\"question\":\"What is the primary purpose of program evaluation in this module?\",\"answer\":\"Program evaluation is used to determine whether a CTE program is working and why, including whether it makes a difference in student outcomes and helps communicate results to stakeholders.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the module differentiate performance measures from program evaluation?\",\"answer\":\"It explains the difference between performance measures and program evaluation and focuses on how evaluation assesses impact and outcomes beyond basic performance indicators.\"},{\"question\":\"What role do logic models play in assessing program outcomes?\",\"answer\":\"The module teaches what a logic model is and how to use it to assess program outcomes by clarifying connections among inputs, activities, outputs, and outcomes.\"}]","Module 3 - Career and Technical Education Program Evaluation: Why It Matters to Practitioners - Facilitator’s Guide | PDF",1792085249,45]
