The document compares two evaluation methods: the Success Case Method and Utilization-Focused Evaluation. The Success Case Method is a quasi-evaluation study that focuses on a small area or method and compares successes to non-successes to determine how successes can be scaled. Utilization-Focused Evaluation is eclectic and takes from various methods, with the goal of ensuring users have needed information and results will be used. It focuses on stakeholders and specific situations. The document concludes the Success Case Method would be preferred to evaluate a rural health program since it assesses successes and non-successes by area according to health standards.
