With his 1973 address titled "Program Evaluation, Particularly Responsive Evaluation," Robert Stake offered a new vision and rationale for educational and social program evaluation. In this vision, evaluation was reframed--from the application of sophisticated analytic techniques that address distant policymakers' questions of program benefits and effectiveness "on the average" to an engagement with on-site practitioners about the quality and meaning of their practice. These innovative ideas helped accelerate a transformation of the evaluation enterprise into its current pluralistic character, within which remain multiple and varied legacies of key responsive evaluation principles.

This is the 92nd issue of the Jossey-Bass series New Directions for Evaluation .
