Managing an Impact Evaluation 327 $aManaging an Evaluation's Team, Time, and Budget 330 8 $aThe second edition of the Impact Evaluation in Practice handbook is a comprehensive and accessible introduction to impact evaluation for policy makers and development practitioners. First published in 2011, it has been used widely across the development and academic communities. The book incorporates real-world examples to present practical guidelines for designing and implementing impact evaluations. Readers will gain an understanding of impact evaluations and the best ways to use them to design evidence-based policies and programs. The updated version covers the newest techniques for evaluating programs and includes state-of-the-art implementation advice, as well as an expanded set of examples and case studies that draw on recent development challenges. It also includes new material on research ethics and partnerships to conduct impact evaluation. The handbook is divided into four sections: Part One discusses what to evaluate and why; Part Two presents the main impact evaluation methods; Part Three addresses how to manage impact evaluations; Part Four reviews impact evaluation sampling and data collection. Case studies illustrate different applications of impact evaluations. The book links to complementary instructional material available online, including an applied case as well as questions and answers. The updated second edition will be a valuable resource for the international development community, universities, and policy makers looking to build better evidence around what works in development. 410 0$aWorld Bank e-Library. 606 $aEconomic development projects$xEvaluation 606 $aEvaluation research (Social action programs) 615 0$aEconomic development projects$xEvaluation. 615 0$aEvaluation research (Social action programs) 676 $a338.91 700 $aGertler$b Paul$f1955-$01623029 702 $aGertler$b Paul$f1955- 712 02$aWorld Bank, 801 0$bDLC 801 1$bDLC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910953890903321 996 $aImpact evaluation in practice$94354573 997 $aUNINA
