Evaluation Participation Measurement Tool

INSTRUCTIONS

This part of the test is easy to complete and does not require special skills. As the evaluator, it could nevertheless be relevant to corroborate the responses taken from your own perceptions with documents (evaluation plan and report, minutes of the evaluation committee, etc.) and the opinions of other participants. All that needs to be done is to check off the evaluation steps in which at least one type of participant is involved (i.e. minimally present). To check a box, simply place the cursor in front of the box and click. The sub-total by row and by column is calculated automatically in the lower right box. Every “X” or checked sub-total box is worth 0.25 points for a final score between 0.00 and 1.00 for diversity of participants and scope of involvement.
