520			_aThis book describes ways of evaluating activities that provide meaningful and useful accounts of situations, with the aim of building in ways for people to stop and think about what they are doing, the impact they are having, and enabling them to narrow the gap between the desired and the actual. Written by an Australian researcher in the human services field, the book is aimed at a wide audience, including students and practitioners in a range of disciplines. The author explains why everyday evaluation is valuable, provides a conceptual framework for the evaluation cycle, and describes two approaches to evaluation:; the audit approach of 'did we do what we set out to', and the open inquiry method asking 'is it working' and 'why.' The author then details how to carry out evaluation as part of everyday life, and finally offers an evaluation toolbox, from which it is suggested users of the book pick and choose.
