Abstract
This article describes an Evaluation Framework that allows for comprehensive evaluation of the Individualized Education Program (IEP). Within the Framework, IEP evaluation is seen as a multifaceted process, undertaken by an IEP evaluator, in order to provide evaluation information to IEP planners and implementers on various aspects of the IEP. Thus, through the systematic use of the Framework, information is obtained about the design of the IEP by means of an evaluability assessment; information about the operations of the IEP by means of a process evaluation; information about the outcome of the IEP by means of an outcome evaluation; and information about the usefulness of the IEP by means of a consumer evaluation. The discussion focuses on appropriate utilization of each evaluation strategy. In addition, several potential problems related to implementation of the Evaluation Framework are highlighted and suggestions are offered for their resolution.
