Such Initiatives are rarely evaluated and, actually, they defy standard evaluation practice. Using Contribution Analysis, we evaluated three of them in Northern France in the last seven years. Doing so proved a methodological challenge, if only because these Initiatives cannot be summed up as a programme of action engaged by an authority, but rather as a local dynamic fuelled by deeply ingrained political convictions. We provide here lessons about how to make the Initiatives evaluable, through the delineation of an evaluand and Theory of Change collaborative reconstruction. But what started with method ended up as a refl ection on values. “What is good” and how can Transition Initiatives contribute to it? And how does it interrogate our own norms and values as evaluators?","PeriodicalId":41629,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Evaluation","volume":"23 1","pages":"239-260"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2020-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75614697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Frühjahrstagung 2019 des Arbeitskreises ‚Methoden in der Evaluation‘ der DeGEval – Gesellschaft für Evaluation e.V.","authors":"Anna Katharina Kleinoscheg","doi":"10.31244/zfe.2020.02.12","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.31244/zfe.2020.02.12","url":null,"abstract":"Evaluierende stehen heute mehr denn je vor der Aufgabe, den wissenschaftlichen und methodischen Ansprüchen an Evaluierung gerecht zu werden. Per Defi nition müssen diese den Anforderungen wissenschaftlicher Güte entsprechen und sind somit ‚angewandte Wissenschaft‘. Die Frage adäquater Methodenanwendung ist in den Evaluierungen somit inhärent und folglich Gegenstand anhaltender Diskussionen. Ein zentrales Thema ist hierbei der Einsatz adäquater Methoden zur Kausalitätsanalyse, die es ermöglichen, qualitativ hochwertige und wissenschaftlichen Standards genügende Designs vor dem Hintergrund eingeschränkter zeitlicher und fi nanzieller Ressourcen anzuwenden. Neben dem vermeintlichen Gold-Standard experimenteller Ansätze und quasi-experimentellen Designs stehen mittlerweile mit sogenannten theoriebasierten Evaluierungsansätzen auch wissenschaftstheoretische Alternativen zur Verfügung, die nicht auf der Untersuchung eines Kontrafaktums beruhen. Trotz dieser wissenschaftstheoretischen Fundierung unterscheiden sich Evaluierungen in der Praxis teilweise stark von wissenschaftlichen Studien. Einschränkungen in der Umsetzung anerkannter Methoden werden häufi g mit Hinweis auf einen Unterschied zwischen Wissenschaft und Praxis als unumgänglich angesehen und auf ‚Plausibilität‘ bzw. ‚Plausibilitätsüberlegungen‘ verwiesen. Plausibilität wird hierbei als ‚alternatives Konzept‘ zu den in der Wissenschaft angewandten Methoden und Designs bzw. als zulässige Alternative zu gängigen wissenschaftlichen Gütekriterien beschrieben. Durch den Bezug auf Plausibilität soll die Reliabilität und Validität von Evaluierungsergebnissen gewahrt werden. Plausibilität wird jedoch nicht näher defi niert und dementsprechend unterschiedlich und in Abhängigkeit der Evaluierenden genutzt. Letztendlich ist ungeklärt, was konkret unter ‚Plausibilität‘ verstanden wird. Ungeklärt ist auch, welcher konkrete Unterschied zwischen Wissenschaft und (Evaluations-)Praxis existiert, der den Bezug auf Plausibilität erforderlich machen","PeriodicalId":41629,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Evaluation","volume":"41 1","pages":"372-378"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2020-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81695785","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It presents a quantitative analysis of 170 tools for corporate impact evaluation. In addition, fi ve selected tools were tested in collaboration with three multinational corporations. The diversity of tools is enormous, and the market is relatively new and opaque. Only a few tools use complete logic frameworks, the pathways of impact are rarely uncovered, data assurance is not a common standard, third-party verifi cation is rare, and none of the tools applies systems concepts. As a result, companies run the risk of creating a smooth façade of controllability, while underestimating the complexity of impacts and overlooking important leverage points. Bridging the gap between the business sector and the evaluation community could lift the practice of corporate impact evaluation to a higher level.","PeriodicalId":41629,"journal":{"name":"Zeitschrift Fur Evaluation","volume":"4 1","pages":"261-290"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2020-10-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81885375","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
