Stake Model of Evaluation

The Stake Model of Evaluation is a way to assess programs or projects by focusing on the interests of different stakeholders—people or groups affected by the program, such as students, teachers, parents, or funders. It emphasizes understanding each stakeholder’s values, needs, and concerns to determine how well the program meets its goals from their perspectives. Instead of solely relying on numerical data, it considers qualitative feedback and the context of the program. This approach helps ensure that evaluations are meaningful and relevant to those involved, leading to more informed decisions about the program’s effectiveness and improvements.
