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.

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.
