how to write evaluation report
welcome to M&D made simple which is a
youtube channel explicitly designed to
take out all your amended needs i am
your host coach Alexander and i'll be
running you through this very
interesting topic on how to write an
evaluation report now to start with
people you know writing an evaluation
report is important
I'm sure you hear me say that would all
the time but let's face it if you're
running a project if you're running a
program that program or project has to
be evaluated and the only way you're
going to know where that has been
achieved moments from your interventions
is through a report and this report
should come out inequality in the right
format highest quality so that even as
you're reading a note left getting so
let's go straight and go to our friend
our good friend and Google ok I'll go
here so I've already typed on the search
evaluation report and there's so much
literature actually if you look on the
results there's over 399 median results
on justice topic of an evaluation so
there's so much literature outside out
their gaze you're not stranded there's
so much information on how to rate this
report the best way I know when it comes
to these things there's so many formats
sometimes there's no right or wrong
answer but usually what I do I look on a
number of reports and see how experts
have returned it themselves
so what do we do what do we do what do
we do do a been an effective let's just
go to the a checklist
and see what they have for us so and
evolution report checklist the
evaluation importantly it has to intend
applications that are related to
evaluation management 1822 get the
discussion between evaluators and 2a to
provide formative feedback report reads
ok so if we zoom in there we have the
format ok so it for my it follows the
normal format of most reports so really
in the evolution report you want to have
80 is blocking out
ok there you want to get 80 and this
title page should you know on the
checklist it is title is sufficiently
and concise to facilitate indexing
author's names all these details should
be there then in the evaluation report
they should also be any executive
summary so they also gives what should
be in the summary then they should be a
table of contents then introduction and
background methodology results summary
conclusion and recommendations
references and appendix
so if you look at this the evaluation
reports really should have eight
sections and how advise you to download
this checklist it could act as a very
good gate but let's go to let's just
look at an evaluation for example
sometimes my internet is behaves so
please forgive me
ok let's go to yourself in a
technician's usually doesn't ok they're
so this is a project evaluation report
the capacity-building of Egyptian NGOs
to implement beijing platform of action
project by appropriate communication
communication techniques for development
that at submitted by UNICEF Egypt so as
you can see this is the format really
people it just follow the normal reports
you've got that list of tables executive
summary introduction and how many pages
are there they're 60 pages 1604 the
figures but how am I wanted to replicate
same 60 so it could be more so now days
you can't there's so much material but
there's some point as I want to let you
know when you're writing an evaluation
report please make sure to answer the
questions that are being asked you see
before that program or project is being
evaluated there's usually a terms of
reference so if you a consultant who's
been contracted or your name and the
office are doing a nintendo evaluation
of your organization answer the
questions set out in the terms of
reference usually people want to see
whether the project has made any
achievement so in your conclusion you
should constantly concisely say where
that they has been I an achievement
whether it's with continuing or whether
it's it should just be ended also
something like that people shouldn't be
left getting number two it should be
able to provide some evidence based
research you know people want to to see
numbers you know it becomes more
interesting when you're able to see
numbers we want to see things coming in
you know so look at this like I don't
know what this
evaluation really is about but you can
see them tables there percentages you
know so that's what we're looking for in
an evaluation report really the reports
we shouldn't be lately
no but it should answer the questions so
people out advise if you want to learn
more how to write evaluation report
please look at other people's reports
and get some insight
so this is what i can say for now i am
your host coach Alexander and see you on
the other side
