Excerpt from Six Keys to Evaluating Extension Work We learned in key 1 that the objective of your educational pro gram or action should be stated to define clearly the desired behavior change. So also should your teaching activities be planned to reach those people whom you want to reach, and to make learning most possible for them. Some kinds of learning can result from a variety of teaching methods, while others require particular teaching methods. For example, a homemaker may learn the importance of a balanced diet through reading, listening to talks, participating in discussions, and other ways. We all know, though, that a learner cannot learn certain physical skills without actually doing them. The teaching methods you use or supervise determine which people could have been influenced to learn. These people, then, by their performance, are the only ones who can provide evidence of teaching success. To determine who might have learned something from your teach ing, you need to know three things: (1) What you can expect from different kinds of teaching methods, 2) the possible chain reao tion which your teaching of certain kinds of information can set up, and (3) whether or not the learners have the facilities to prae tice and acquire skill in what you have been teaching. Suppose you define incorrectly the people who can be expected to provide evidence of the degree of success of your teaching; this mistake may cause evaluation to unduly emphasize lack of success just as often as it may overemphasize success.
