Answer to Question 1

Ans: D
Surveys are usually performed for summative (impact) evaluation. Impact or summative evaluation is concerned with the immediate impact of a program on a target group.

Answer to Question 2

Ans: B
The nominal group technique uses a structured group meeting, during which all individuals are given a judgmental task, such as to list the functions of the program, problems of the program, or needed changes in the program. The Delphi technique is generally used in large survey studies but is also useful as a case-study method. This technique involves a series of questionnaires and feedback reports to a designated panel of respondents, as well as distributing an initial questionnaire by mail to a preselected group.
