Answer to Question 1

Ans: C
Outcome evaluation measures whether the program activities changed the initial reason for the program. Impact or summative evaluation is concerned with the immediate impact of a program on a target group. Process or formative evaluation answers the question: Are we doing what we said we would do? Some authors make a distinction between formative and process evaluation by using process to denote evaluation conducted during the program, whereas formative may be applied at formative or preprogram stages.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
The nurse is evaluating progress when asking the question Are program activities following the intended plan?; relevancy when asking the question Is there a need for the program?; cost efficiency when asking the question What are the costs of a program?; and effectiveness when asking the question Were program objectives met?

This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
