Reviews
Timely, practical, and focused, this book is an invaluable resource on program evaluation. I cannot recommend this book highly enough. * David Shriberg, Ph.D., Professor of Education, Loyola University Chicago *
Morrison and Harms authoritatively answer the question that plagues many school professionals: How do I know this program is working in my school? Advancing Evidence-Based Practice through Program Evaluation is a definitive source for conducting program evaluation in the schools. Its emphasis on school-based procedures and case studies make this an invaluable resource for all school professionals. * Kara E. McGoey, Ph.D., Professor and Director, School Psychology Program, Duquesne University *
