The use of cases as a teaching and learning tool has continued to increase and is now a widely accepted pedagogical tool, as the emphasis in higher education has changed from professorcentered learning to active student involvement and participation in the educational process. The goal is to graduate students who possess superior communication, critical thinking, and problemsolving skills. By using the case method, the instructor's role changes from that of a dispenser of knowledge to one of democratic leader of a group of which he or she becomes an integral part, which fosters learning and results in improved teacher evaluations.
Articles should deal with topics applicable to the broad field of program evaluation. Implications for practicing evaluators should be clearly identified. Examples of contributions include but are not limited to reviews of new developments in evalua tion and descriptions of a current evaluation effort, research problem, or technique. Manuscripts should include appropriate references and not exceed 10 double- spaced typewritten pages in length.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
