Standards-Based and Responsive Evaluation
"We can be grateful that Dr. Stake decided to cap his distinguished career by sharing his ideas in writing.This is a book that evaluators will want to have in their personal library.It tells us a lot about our field, highlights contrasting ways of evaluating without pitting one against the other, and manages to remind us why many of us chose this line of work in the first place."--EVALUATION AND PROGRAM PLANNINGAuthored by a master writer and evaluator, Standards-Based and Responsive Evaluation explores the many conceptual choices an evaluator needs to make when doing an evaluation, devoting attention to stakeholders, weighing ethical risks, and writing a useful report.The book begins with the main strategic choices an evaluator needs to make between approaches: quantitatively,by explicating criteria, needs, standards, and performances, or qualitatively, by studying the activity, aspirations, problems, and accomplishments of the participants and critical observers.After reading the text, students will have a better appreciation of evaluation as a process that needs to be custom-fit to the situation.Throughout the book, Stake presents evaluation as a series of choices for the reader: - To remain independent or to join with program staff or stakeholders- To value personal experience as evidence or to shun it as biased- To aid development formatively or to assess the existing program summatively- To use issues, goals, gains, efficiency, or problem solving as the key conceptual structure- To invest small or large in trying out and validating data-gathering procedures- To support the standards and ethical codes of professional associationsStandards-Based and Responsive Evaluation will prove an essential text for program evaluation courses in education, nursing, social work, psychology, sociology, communication, and anthropology.Experienced researchers and professional evaluators will also find this an invaluable reference for a more experiential, interpretive approach to evaluation work and policy setting. Key Features:- Provides readers with the tools they need to make choices while practicing evaluation- Employs quotations, poetry, and cartoons to help the reader "experience" the concepts of evaluation - Includes boxed examples from a variety of cases, giving readers the opportunity to compare an actual evaluation situation with one in which they may be engaged- Allows readers to access extensive examples of evaluation reports, coding excerpts, and more, through a complementary Web site appendix

Is baking powder bio-based and environmentally sustainable?
Baking powder is not entirely bio-based, as it is typically made from a combination of sodium bicarbonate (baking soda), cream of tartar, and a moisture-absorbing agent such as cornstarch. While some of these ingredients may be derived from natural sources, the overall production process and ingredients used may not be considered entirely environmentally sustainable. Additionally, the packaging and transportation of baking powder can also contribute to its overall environmental impact. However, there are bio-based and environmentally sustainable alternatives to traditional baking powder, such as using homemade baking powder made from natural ingredients like baking soda and cream of tartar.

Stakeholder consultations, public debates, and regulatory frameworks also play a role in the ethical evaluation of genetically modified salmon to ensure that all perspectives are considered before making a decision.

Is baking powder bio-based and environmentally friendly?
Baking powder is a chemical leavening agent that typically contains a combination of bicarbonate of soda, an acid, and a moisture-absorbing agent. While some baking powders may contain bio-based ingredients, such as cream of tartar as the acid component, the overall product is not considered entirely bio-based. In terms of environmental friendliness, baking powder is generally safe for the environment when used in moderation, as it breaks down into harmless substances during baking. However, excessive use of baking powder can contribute to sodium levels in waterways, which may have negative environmental impacts.

Additionally, Vaseline is not considered cruelty-free as it is tested on animals in some regions where it is sold.

Which is more sustainable or environmentally friendly: streaming or Blu-rays/DVDs?
Streaming is generally considered more sustainable and environmentally friendly compared to Blu-rays/DVDs. This is because streaming eliminates the need for physical production, packaging, and transportation of discs, reducing carbon emissions and waste. Additionally, streaming allows for more efficient use of resources as it does not require the manufacturing of physical products that may end up in landfills. However, streaming does have its own environmental impact through data centers and energy consumption, so it is important to consider the overall impact of both options.

What is more sustainable or environmentally friendly: streaming or Blu-rays/DVDs?
Streaming is generally considered to be more sustainable and environmentally friendly compared to Blu-rays/DVDs. This is because streaming eliminates the need for physical production, packaging, and transportation of discs, reducing carbon emissions and waste. Additionally, streaming services are more energy-efficient as they require less power to deliver content compared to the manufacturing and operation of DVD/Blu-ray players. However, streaming does have its own environmental impact through data centers and internet infrastructure, so it is important to consider overall energy consumption and efficiency when comparing the two options.
