Ongoing and participative evaluation: Purpose, design and role in the evaluation of a large-scale R&D programme
Using the particular case of a large-scale R&D programme concerned with learning technologies within the European Community's Third Framework Programme for pre-competitive industrial R&D, a participative evaluation method is outlined. It is important to define adequately the object of evaluation at micro, meso and macro levels; the programme architecture defines who are the legitimate actors and how they are organised and funded; by defining the stakeholders a joint enterprise evaluation was agreed by which the questions of ‘local’ evaluators were given as much precedence as those of the programme's sponsors; an understanding of the context of the R&D requires a knowledge of the domain.
