Table of Contents
SECTION 1: Executive Summary
SECTION 2: Program Description
SECTION 3: Evaluation Methodology
SECTION 4: Findings
SECTION 5: Interpretation and Reflection
SECTION 6: Recommendations
This stage of the guide provides a suggested format for your final
evaluation report, along with ideas for developing each section of the
report. While this stage covers the basic content for any evaluation
report, your report may vary from the model presented here. How you
decide to organize your report will depend on the purpose of the report,
your audience, and the requirements of the funding agency. (See
Appendix H for alternative evaluation report formats.)

An “Executive Summary” (sometimes called a Summary) is a short
document of one or two pages that appears at the beginning of the
final evaluation report. The Executive Summary provides an
overview of the program and highlights key findings and
recommendations from the evaluation, giving the reader a sense of
the report’s content without having to read the entire document.
Why write an Executive Summary?
• The Executive Summary outlines what the reader should expect
to find in the report.
• A Summary may be used separately from the report. For
instance, it may serve as an efficient means of sharing key
findings of the evaluation with a large audience or a potential
funder.
What is included in the Executive Summary?
The exact length and components of a summary may vary
depending on the purpose of the report. Typically, an executive
summary is an overview of the report and includes:
• Purpose of the program
• Program activities, setting and population served
• Purpose of the evaluation
• Overview of findings or outcomes
• Overview of recommendations
Tips for writing an Executive Summary
• Do not include technical details in the Executive Summary. That
is, do not include details about data collection methods used.
• Write the Executive Summary last, after all other sections of the
report are completed.
• Write the Executive Summary in a way that allows the reader to
learn about the most salient aspects of the evaluation without
reading the full report.

Keeping Content Health and Quality in Check by Jason Kaufman, Irrevo
Measuring what’s working, what isn’t, and acting on this critical information is what
drives the continuous optimization of your content. Focusing your quality program roles,
responsibilities, and accountabilities is the key to simplifying your workload and lowering
costs.
In this session, we will demonstrate how to:
• Establish your Article Quality Index (AQI) to measure the success of your content quality
program.
• Determine your Article Utility Index (AUI), what content is valid AND valuable.
• Manage your Content Validity Check (CVC) Project(s).
• Identify and track improvement opportunities (Flagging) and enhancements (Fixing) on
an ongoing basis.

OL 663 Milestone One Guidelines and Rubric
In the final project, you will be developing a change plan for the “Alaska Airlines: Navigating Change.” In The Heart of Change Field Guide: Tools and Tactics for
Leading Change in Your Organization, Cohen explains what is required from the leader and other parts of the organization to deliver Kotter’s steps successfully
as a change intervention.
Review the case study “Alaska Airlines: Navigating Change” and then complete the following: (a) State what actually occurred in the case regarding Kotter’s first
two steps of establishing a sense of urgency and creating the guiding team in a change effort and (b) reflect on what you think should have been done in the
change effort regarding those two steps. State your reflection as recommendations to implement Kotter’s steps 1 and 2.
This milestone will help you build Section I parts A and B of your final project.
A. Create Urgency
1. Describe a plan to create urgency within the organization and convince stakeholders that this change needs to take place.
2. What processes currently exist for implementing change? How will these processes need to be updated for the proposed change?
3. Describe the strategy you will use to get support from your employees. How will this strategy be effective?
B. Build a Guiding Coalition
1. Identify who should be involved in this guiding coalition. Provide rationale for each choice. Kotter likes 50% leaders and 50% managers with
experience, while others prefer the composition to be 33% leaders, 33% managers, and 33% informal leaders, but you can assemble the guiding
coalition as you see fit.
2. Determine steps you can take to ensure commitment from those involved. Describe those steps.
Guidelines for Submission: Your paper must be submitted as a 3–6-page Microsoft Word document with double spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, one-

The Judge set a date for Mark's trial and his defense team has been working to collect information about the technology used by the Highway Patrol to reconstruct the crash.
District Attorney O'Malley offered Mark a plea bargain, but Mark chose to take his chances at trial. Mark's attorney, Mr. Chen Long, advised Mark that accepting the plea offer was completely up to Mark, although Mr. Long advised against accepting it because the defense planned to highlight mistakes made by law enforcement during the investigation that could create reasonable doubt in the minds of the jurors.
The trial begins and during the voir dire of potential jurors, several individuals are excused because they have previous knowledge of Mark's case from the media. Two individuals stated that they could not be impartial because they had loved ones killed in alcohol related crashes as well. Eventually, two men and ten women were seated in Mark's trial.
District Attorney O'Malley presented the State's case clearly and concisely depicting a night on the town full of heavy drinking, which ultimately resulted in Mark's actions causing the death of one individual and injuring four others. Highway Patrolman Green explained to the jury that he immediately suspected alcohol when he arrived on scene because Mark appeared to be intoxicated when they spoke. Following the Judge ruling that it was admissible and not prejudicial, Sergeant Rodney Monroe, from the Highway Patrol Reconstruction Team presented their reconstruction complete with a high-tech computer animated reenactment of the crash. During the cross examination, Defense Attorney Long challenged the reconstruction because the Defense Crash Reconstruction Expert had discovered errors in the mathematical calculations for vehicle speed. The jury appeared to have liked the reconstruction very much regardless of the errors highlighted by the defense.
Mark was convicted of DWI, four counts of felony assault, and one count of involuntary manslaughter; however, he was acquitted of reckless driving and speeding. The Jury said they could not convict Mark of those offenses because of the mistakes made by law enforcement officers during the investigation.
Because Mark pleads not guilty, but was convicted during trial and had two prior DWI offenses, he was sentenced to ten years in the State Prison. Defense Attorney Long immediately notified the court of an impending appeal that would be filed by the defendant. In a report, using external sources to support your claims, answer the following:

Assignment 1: LASA 2: Policy, Lawsuits, and the Mitigation Plan
It is important for those who have an interest in the criminal justice system or in law enforcement to learn about some of the challenges working in a litigious society can create. Criminal justice agencies have developed methods to reduce the chances of incurring lawsuits against their officers and departments. You will glean valuable insight and learn how to begin developing clear, concise, and substantive communication necessary for criminal justice and law enforcement officers.
In this LASA, you will create a
18–20 slide PowerPoint presentation
and write your script from the perspective of one of the following roles in Centervale: an internal affairs investigator, compliance officer, or similar official seeking to mitigate and improve the department by reducing the number of legal actions filed against the department. You have been asked to do this presentation in response to the following scenario:
It is common to see groups of youths hanging around various locations in Centervale. A group of mischievous juveniles hang out at a 24 hour Burger Joint on Tenth Street on a fairly regular basis and often get into Saturday night scuffles with other groups of juveniles, which require the police to respond to clear the area. The owner of the Burger Joint has become increasingly concerned about a drastic decrease in sales; however, he continued to look the other way until the scuffles escalated into full-blown fights that involved weapons, such as knives or brass knuckles.
Recently, the owner of the Burger Joint called 911 in a panic because he thought he heard gunshots fired from the parking lot area during a scuffle. Officers from the Centervale Police Department (CPD) arrived on the scene to find several youths involved in a physical fight provoked by a verbal attack, but there were no visible signs of weapons. Officer Jack Newbie just completed Taser training at the Centervale Police Academy. Officer Newbie believes carrying a "non-lethal" alternative to a firearm is beneficial for law enforcement officers.
Officer Newbie and his partner proceeded with caution when attempting to break-up the fight at the Burger Joint because reports of weapons involvement can create very dangerous situations for officers as they approach. Sam White, 15 years old, who was not actively involved in the physical aspect of the scuffle, tried to flee from the scene. Officer Newbie did not give verbal commands before firing his Taser at White as he fled. The Taser's 50,000-volt of electric shock caused White to go into cardiac arrest upon impact, but he was revived on the way to Centervale Memorial hospital. White's girlfriend, Rosey Green, a small-framed female, who was visibly showing signs of pregnancy, was distraught and angry over White's condition. Green jumped onto Officer Newbie's back, bit him on the neck and punched him in the ear. Officer Newbie's partner, Officer Joe Flash, Tased Green du.
Assignment 1 LASA 2 Setting Minds at EaseHeres What Happened . .docx
Assignment 1: LASA 2: Setting Minds at Ease
Here's What Happened . . .
On the first of May this year, Centervale Police Officer Smith arrested Rosie Greene, a 15-year-old, for stealing several items from a local convenience store. This was just one of several incidents Rosie has been involved in this year. The majority of Rosie's incidents have been centered on her schoolwork, fights, loitering, and truancy.
The principal has suspended Rosie several times from school. However, Rosie continues to engage in delinquent behaviors. Rosie's arrest has been widely publicized in the newspaper and on television because Rosie ran from the police after they caught up with her while being truant from school and smoking behind a pizza shop.
You have been working with Centervale's City Government to propose a plan to reduce juvenile delinquency and prevent further incidents of younger children becoming involved in delinquent behaviors as they grow up.
The principal has asked if you would help the School Board understand more about juvenile delinquency, the juvenile justice system, and particularly Rosie Greene's situation to help them appropriately respond to parent's questions and create a new policy. He has asked you to prepare a presentation for the Centervale City School Board's next meeting.
Here's What You Need to Do . . .
You are required to develop a 10–15 slide PowerPoint presentation with script for the Centervale City School Board. Use APA in-text citations and external sources that are referred to on a corresponding references slide and include the following:
Differentiate between the juvenile and adult justice systems by first defining the terms
crime
,
delinquent act
, and
status offense
. Because of the School Board’s familiarity with Rosie's juvenile case, discuss the nature of her offenses by identifying which ones are crimes, delinquent acts, or status offenses.
Explain to the School Board the origin of juvenile rights and the process of juveniles' rights while in custody. Address the concerns raised by the school board member who wondered what would happen to Rosie because she ran from the police. Did Rosie's choice change her rights?
Compare and contrast juvenile rights to the rights of an adult under similar circumstances. Use Rosie's case to illustrate to the School Board the similarities and differences of the juvenile and adult justice systems.
Summarize the juvenile courtroom process using Rosie's case. Include Rosie's rights, and identify the courtroom parties who will be present: lawyers, judge, etc. Predict a probable series of events for Rosie's case and describe how the outcome might be different if Rosie were an adult.
Integrate in your presentation to the School Board your proposed Juvenile Delinquency Reduction Plan from LASA 1. Describe how the plan might address one or more of the issues presented in Rosie's situation. Explain the steps in your plan that the School Board may find helpful in their plight to reduce juven.

Assignment 1: LASA 2: Parole Supervision
Here's What Happened:
Mary White, age twenty-five, is a Hispanic female. She has been on probation for twelve months of a five-year probation program. She is on supervision for the felony charge of possession of a controlled substance. During her period of supervision, that is, probation, White has tested positive for the use of amphetamines on two separate occasions, failing to participate in outpatient treatment and failing to abide by the stipulations set forth by the court.
Recently, White violated the conditions of her probation by getting arrested for driving while she was intoxicated and tampering with a vehicle. White was sentenced to sixty days of incarceration within the county jail for her violations. The police report, which was obtained for the violation of probation hearing purposes, stated:
Centervale Police Department (CPD)
CPD Case Number:
11-XXXX
Incident:
Tampering with a Vehicle
Reporting Officer:
R. T. Smith
Date of Report:
April 1, 2012
At approximately 9:30 p.m. on April 1, 2012, I, Officer R. T. Smith was dispatched to a stolen vehicle complaint at 123 Main Street in Centervale. I met with the complainant, Jane Daugherty, who said that she had parked her car by a meter while entering into Fuzzy's Furniture Store. Before returning to her car she had stopped at the sandwich shop to pick up dinner. Daugherty returned to her car at approximately 10:30 p.m. This is when she discovered her car had been stolen.
Daugherty described her car as a 2009 black Toyota Corolla. The registration is 123-ABC. The car is valued at approximately $13,000 and has a sunroof and a dent on the back left fender from a grocery cart.
Daugherty stated that she had locked the car after exiting but did not have the keys with her at the time. She also said that she had left the keys in a lock box in the gas tank so that she did not have to worry about losing them. Daugherty stated that she had not given anyone permission to take her vehicle and was current on her auto payments so there was no possibility of repossession.
In my survey of the crime scene, I was unable to locate any items of evidence. There was no broken glass near the meter where the vehicle was parked and there were no items to photograph. Daugherty's vehicle information was entered into the National Crime Information Center database and a
Be on the look-out
(BOLO) was issued for her vehicle.
At approximately 12:15 a.m. on April 2, 2012, information was received that Centervale Officer W. S. Wright was in pursuit of the suspected stolen vehicle. He entered into a traffic stop after the car came to a stop outside Freddy's Bar in South Centervale. The driver of the vehicle was later identified as Mary White by her driver's license. White appeared to be intoxicated and resisted Officer Wright at the scene. White was arrested for driving while intoxicated and tampering with a motor vehicle. The car was towed to Fred's Salvage.

Topic Choices • There have been many theories regarding how the pyramids at Giza were constructed. Most experts agree that they were constructed as burial monuments for pharaohs, but “how” these ancient people constructed monuments of such great size without modern machinery is a mystery which is still being debated. • No one can say for certain what happened to the Mayan people, but theories abound and include varied possible alternatives to explain the abrupt and mysterious disappearance of the Mayan civilization. • Tutankhamen died young, at around 18 years of age. However, his cause of death has not been confirmed. Did he die of an injury, of illness, or was he murdered? • Considered the “Mummy’s Curse”, a series of unexplainable, unfortunate, or tragic events that happened to the people who were present at the opening of Tutankhamen’s tomb. • There has always been debate about the identity of the poet Homer, the presumed author of the Iliad and the Odyssey. Was he a real person or not? • The monumental size and complexity of the Tomb of Shihuangdi is astounding. It is believed that the workers were forced to remain inside the tomb when it was walled shut so they would not reveal the secrets of its construction. What was the emperor’s purpose for such an elaborate burial place? • Other topic choice recommended and approved by the professor and supported by the grading rubric.
Write a three to four (3-4) paragraph paper in which you: 1. Clearly state the “mystery” and provide a brief summary of at least two (2) theories which could explain the mystery. Because some theories may sound far-fetched, include the source or promoter of each theory – such as a scientist, a historian, a theologian, etc. 2.

Assignment 1 Discussion—Multifaceted Assessment Anne M.docx
Assignment 1: Discussion—Multifaceted Assessment: Anne Marie’s Case
Many exceptionalities in children have a high comorbidity, which can make identification and intervention challenging for professionals. This is why, aside from legal and ethical requirements, multifaceted assessment is essential.
Review the following scenario:
Anne Marie is a thirteen-year-old girl who has always struggled socially and behaviorally. Although she has a few friends, she often argues with them, as well as with adults. Despite these challenges, she has always been successful academically, and so a formal evaluation was never conducted. However, Anne Marie’s parents are concerned that her behavior has become more pronounced this year and that she is spending even more time alone. Her parents are not sure if her problems are due to typical development (that is, puberty), a developmental disability such as an autism spectrum disorder, or an emotional disturbance.
Using the module readings, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, research multifaceted assessment.
Incorporate what you learned in your readings and respond to the following:
Explain why it might be important to distinguish between typical development, developmental disability, and emotional disturbance for Anne Marie.
Evaluate the roles each of the following would play in addressing Anne Marie’s challenges:
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) 2004
Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM)
Functional Behavior Assessment (FBA)
Identify any other information that might be important when assessing Anne Marie’s difficulties and designing an intervention for her. Discuss why this information would be important and how would you go about obtaining that information?
Write your initial response in 300–500 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Assignment 1 Discussion—Environmental FactorsIn this assignment, .docx
Assignment 1: Discussion—Environmental Factors
In this assignment, you will have a chance to discuss a topic that brings personality theory together with social psychology. Dealing with unhealthy groups like gangs or cults is an important issue in social psychology. However, you cannot fully address this issue if you do not first understand personality development and how one’s personality affects the choices that are made. Specifically, you will look at Skinner’s behavioral perspective on personality development and discuss how that theory can play a role in this issue of unhealthy groups.
Bob is an adolescent who grew up in a gang-infested part of a large city. His parents provided little supervision while he was growing up and left Bob mostly on his own. He developed friendships with several kids in his neighborhood who were involved in gangs, and eventually joined a gang himself. Now crime and gang activities are a way of life for Bob. These have become his way to identify with his peer group and to support himself.
It is relatively easy to see that Bob’s environment has played a large role in his current lifestyle. This coincides with Skinner’s concept of environment being the sole determinant of how personality develops. Skinner believed that if you change someone’s environment and the reinforcements in that environment, you can change their behavior.
Use the Internet, Argosy University library resources, and your textbook to research Skinner’s concept of the environment and answer the following questions:
If you were to create an environment for Bob to change his behavior from that of a gang member to a respectable and law-abiding citizen, what types of environmental changes and positive reinforcements would you suggest and why?
What are some interventions that are used in the field currently? Are there any evidence-based programs that use these environmental and reinforcement interventions?
Write your initial response in 2–3 paragraphs. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Assignment 1 Discussion—Cultural Differences Kayin’s CaseProfess.docx
Assignment 1: Discussion—Cultural Differences: Kayin’s Case
Professionals must work with families to understand cultural and linguistic characteristics specific to each child. This is critical in determining whether a child’s experiences are typical of someone coming from a different background as opposed to a true disability. These issues can be complex as exceptionalities are seen across cultures as well.
Review the following scenario:
Kayin is an eight-year-old boy in the third grade. His teacher, Mr. Bledsoe, has been very concerned about his problems with reading. He also has difficulty socially, and seems withdrawn, with few, if any, friends. Kayin avoids eye contact with most people, but this is more pronounced with adults. He also becomes very frustrated at times, crying and ripping up his work.
Kayin has been enrolled in the same school since kindergarten. However, Mr. Bledsoe knows that his family is originally from Nigeria and they return every summer to visit family. Although Kayin’s parents speak English fairly fluently, they have a pronounced African accent. Mr. Bledsoe remembers learning that it is an act of respect to avoid eye contact with adults in some cultures, but he cannot remember whether this is true of Nigerian culture.
Mr. Bledsoe has been hesitant to raise the possibility of a disability because he does not know how much of Kayin’s struggles can be attributed to growing up in a bicultural and bilingual home or to Kayin’s own personality.
Using the module readings, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet, research cultural differences related to children with exceptionalities. It may also be useful to consult CultureGrams in the online library for more information on cultures in Nigeria.
Reflect on your readings and respond to the following:
What steps should Mr. Bledsoe take to address Kayin’s challenges?
What professionals might he include to help Kayin?
What further information does Mr. Bledsoe and his colleagues need to best help Kayin? Where can he find this information?
How should Mr. Bledsoe approach the issue of cultural differences with Kayin’s parents?
What ethical dilemma(s) might Mr. Bledsoe face when considering the values, beliefs, and behaviors common in the culture of Kayin’s family within the context of the general American culture?
Write your initial response in 300–500 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.
