What is an impact evaluation question?
Key impact evaluation questions Descriptive questions ask about how things were and how they are now and what changes have taken place since the intervention. Causal questions ask what produced the changes and whether or not, and to what extent, observed changes are due to the intervention rather than other factors.
What are the evaluation questions?

How do you write a evaluation question?
How can I create effective evaluation questions?
- be linked to the objectives of the training programme/event.
- be clearly stated and clearly indicate how to respond.
- be valid (ie they test what they are designed to test)
- be reliable (ie they provide consistent results)
What is sample evaluation?
When conducting an evaluation, it is critical to select a sample of participants that are representative of the population you wish to study. Samples are representative when they provide an accurate reflection of the variations and diversity represented within a population.
What are the 5 questions for evaluating decisions?

How do you choose a good sample method?
How to Choose the Best Sampling Method
- List the research goals (usually some combination of accuracy, precision, and/or cost).
- Identify potential sampling methods that might effectively achieve those goals.
- Test the ability of each method to achieve each goal.
How would you describe the best sample?
What makes a good sample? A good sample should be a representative subset of the population we are interested in studying, therefore, with each participant having equal chance of being randomly selected into the study.
