授業の目的 【日本語】
Goals of the Course(JPN) | | "この授業はプロジェクト・プログラムの評価の基礎的概念や課題に焦点を当てます。評価はプロジェクトの計画、実施、モニタリングなどに有益な情報を知識を得るためのもので、そこで得られた情報や知識を将来のプロジェクトやプログラムへフィードバックします。これは、公共政策の改善に深く関連しています。多くの履修生がこれま公共政策に携わってきていますので、これまでの経験で得られた知識を整理することができます。あるいは今後公共政策に携わり立案、実施、評価に携わることを期待しています。
講義の主要部分はプロジェクトやプログラムの計画と評価の理論的、実践的な分析です。併せて本講義では、近年注目を浴びているＲＣＴ（ランダム化比較試験）、顕示選好法や仮想評価法などの新しい手法についても学びます。
この講義はディプロマポリシーやカリキュラム・ポリシーに示されている独立で能動的な知識の創造に貢献することを目指すものです。" |

授業の目的 【英語】
Goals of the Course | | "This course focuses on basic concepts and issues on how projects and programs are evaluated to obtain useful information and knowledge for improving planning, implementation, monitoring and feeding back to next interventions. It is also quite relevant to improve making of public policy which many students are expected to take part in the future.
Main part of the course is on theoretical as well as practical analysis of planning and evaluation of projects and programs. The course also puts emphasis on development of innovative methods for evaluation such as RCT (Randomized Controlled Trial), Revealed/ Stated Preference Method and Capacity Development for Evaluation. The course is expected to be a major part of human resource development programme for independent and active creation of knowledge as proclaimed in the Diploma Policy and the Curriculum Policy " |
