By popular demand, we have made last week's 2009 Claremont Evaluation Debates available online for free via streaming video. Each debate includes approximately 90 minutes of thoughtful, incisive, and sometimes contentious discussion between major voices in the living history of Evaluation on how the discipline can and should be practiced.
Debate 1: Utilization-Focused Evaluation - Its Promise and Pitfalls Michael Quinn Patton and Michael Scriven
Debate 2: Empowerment Evaluation - Its Promise and Pitfalls David Fetterman, Michael Quinn Patton, and Michael Scriven
