Case Study 3

I don’t understand this Political Science question and need help to study.

• In Case Study 3, you will apply your theories of policy analysis and program evaluation to the evaluation of a program or an analysis of policy by a particular state or local government public administration case. What type of program evaluation (formative/summative, CIPP/Logic Model/Systems Model…) was used or how was policy analysis conducted? Apply these theories to actual events, decisions, and characters in the case. Use course readings from your textbook, Powerpoints, presentations, and outside journal readings. General Guidelines: Case Study scenarios must be taken from documented (published) public administration contexts; no hypotheticals are allowed. Students can focus on one particular local or state public program or may refer to a particular situation (well-documented by the research) that would require either program evaluation or policy analysis. All ideas shared by the student must be supported with sound reason and citations from the required readings, presentations, and additional research. Integrate Biblical principles in your analysis not at the end. The paper should be 4 pages of content in length (not counting the title page or references), double-spaced, and in APA format. All required readings and presentations the Course modules must be cited. Use 3-5 additional sources beyond your course required readings. Wikipedia may not be used (though certainly the student is welcome to review its content), and informal blogs are not appropriate. Governing magazine, American Evaluation Association site, evaluation reports by various states and local governments, and policy analysis or evaluation reports by consultants to state and local government are helpful resources for your cases.
