The Oral History of Evaluation

Abstract

Over the past 14 years, AEA's Oral History Project Team (Robin Lin Miller, Jean A. King, Valerie Caracelli, and Melvin M. Mark) has conducted interviews with individuals who have made signal contributions to evaluation theory and practice, tracing their professional development and contextualizing their work within the social and political climates of the time. By documenting the professional evolution of those who have contributed to the ways in which people understand and practice evaluation in the United States today, we are creating an oral genealogy of the field of program evaluation. We also hope to capture the spirit of the times in which these individuals' ideas and interests developed. Jean A. King conducted the interview with Professor Stake in 2011, assisted by Robin Lin Miller and Valerie Caracelli. Stake and Miller edited the transcript.

Application design of countenance evaluation based on Tri Hita Karana-Aneka for evaluating the students’ computer capability and students’ character

“…Some pieces of literature that were used as a theoretical basis in this research were related to the Countenance evaluation model, ANEKA concept, and the Tri Hita Karana concept. According to Gondikit (2018), Miller et al (2016, Thanabalan et al (2015), Fatima et al (2016) stated that the Countenance evaluation model is a flexible evaluation model by using description matrix and judgment matrix stages so that it can be used in various situations depending on the objectives to be achieved by the evaluators. Ariah et al (2018) stated that Countenance is an evaluation model consisting of three stages of evaluation, including: antecedents (it can also be termed as context), transactions (it can also be termed as processes), and outcomes (it can also be termed as outputs).…”
