Toward a Distributed Model of EvaluationPeriodically, some major organizing pattern of society changes fundamentally. For over a decade, we have been going through such a change in communications with the World Wide Web, which supplanted top-down structures (television networks and telephone companies) with more interactive processes and user-generated content. It seems to me that the field of evaluation is moving through such a change process. The changing face of evaluation has much in common with other change systems in terms of distribution, and for this reason I propose to apply the term distributed evaluation—which already exists in some more specialized contexts—to this broad phenomena. |
