Explain how you would define the current target geographic boundaries for the same program’s target population.

Explain how you would define the current target geographic boundaries for

the same program’s target population.

(1) Over the last five weeks I have asked students to view the website of the

American Evaluation Association (AEA) as part of their course activities. For

this mid-term I would like each of you to examine the AEA Topical Interest

Groups (TIG) web page found at this link:

https://www.eval.org/Community/Topical-Interest-Groups

Then:

– Identify one TIG in particular that interests you.

– Discuss why you think the work of the TIG is important from the

perspective of a forward thinking field of program evaluation.

– What issues would you like to see the TIG you select focus on in 2022?

Why have these concerns become important now?

– Is there a TIG you think is missing from the list that should be added? If

so, which one (s) – and why?

(2) Discuss what a target population is, and explain its purpose in a program

evaluation Why is this concept important for evaluators to understand?

Then:

– Explain how you would define the current target population for a program of

your choice (it can be the one you are working on for the EDP assignment).

– Explain how you would define the current target geographic boundaries for

the same program’s target population.
