Evaluation of Adult Nonformal Education Programs: An International Perspective

During the past 20 years, international and bilateral assistance and funding agencies have become... more During the past 20 years, international and bilateral assistance and funding agencies have become increasingly involved in evaluation activities in adult and nonformal education, especially in developing countries. The adult education field pioneered many approaches now advocated by specialists in prograt rnd project evaluation. Beginning ih the 1920s and 1930s, United States agricultural extension specialists did extensive studies on farmer eitenii6E-OfidtTees. lb thii-I950s and 1960s, international effcrts began to build on some of the earlier agricultural extension concepts. Needs assessments, evaluation of adult education booklets, and evaluation of UNESCO adult education, literacy, and reading materials were all conducted. The UNESCO Experimental World Literacy Program conducted 11 projects in the late 1960s to mid-1970s that had built-in evaluation systems. During the 1970s and early 1980s, the governing bodies of most international organizations stipulated more evaluative efforts to provide data on the impact of various organizational activities. Such evaluation efforts sensitized project and program personnel in international agencies and in national governments to the need for participatory evaluation specifically to improve projects and programs.

Recent Research on the Impact of Alternative Education Delivery Systems in Honduras

In Honduras, 88 percent of the rural population has 6 years or less of formal education. Several ... more In Honduras, 88 percent of the rural population has 6 years or less of formal education. Several distance education schemes have been undertaken to address both low rural educational levels and the destruction of schools by Hurricane Mitch. This paper reports on recent studies of two distance education efforts with substantial international support. Since the mid-1990s, USAID has supported EDUCATODOS, which originally covered grades 1-6 using packages of printed materials supplemented by radio lessons. In 1999, the program was extended to grades 7-9, and audio materials were distributed on cassettes and CDs. Telebasica is based on the Mexican Telesecundaria program and serves grades 7-9 using videotapes and printed materials from Mexico. Telebasica operates during the day with trained teachers in converted schools, while EDUCATODOS operates in the evening in any available space using volunteer facilitators. A 1997 evaluation of EDUCATODOS found that the program had offered 120,000 person-hours of schooling to Honduran youth and adults at 28 percent of the cost of equivalent traditional schooling. 'EDUCATODOS students had higher achievement than traditional elementary students, but dropout rates were significant, especially among indigenous groups. In 2002, ongoing research projects are evaluating program impacts on women and on the economy, documenting changes in student attitudes and character at the seventh-grade level, studying volunteer facilitators (teachers), and examining elements of program organization and management. Preliminary findings indicate that the two programs are raising student achievement, improving student self-confidence and employment potential, and offering innovative and flexible delivery.
