Evaluation Project Report: Can We Agree on Common Child Outcomes for BC?
This report reviews early childhood evaluation frameworks across Canada and some in the United States. Evaluation frameworks of BC programs are examined for areas of agreement and whether there is capacity to work with a shared set of outcomes. The report recommends four long-term outcomes and details the process used to reach agreement on these. Conclusions are drawn on what is required to make evaluation work. An extensive bibliography identifies important early years documents and evaluation models.
