1 Syllabus Version 2.0, 10/22/08 SPP636: Program Evaluation Monday, Wednesday 10:00-11:30 am, 1230 Weill Hall Professor Elisabeth Gerber, 5228 Weill Hall, , GSI John English, 3202 Weill Hall, , Purpose: The objective of this course is to learn the tools that are frequently used to determine whether public policies and programs are achieving their objectives. A great deal of money is spent on evaluations, and they are difficult to conduct successfully. All evaluations have weaknesses, and some have more weaknesses than others; you will learn to distinguish high from low quality evaluations. Policies and programs in a broad range of areas will be examined, including health, criminal justice, education, welfare, and development. Materials will be presented in several ways, including but not limited to lectures, guest lectures, in-class exercises, student presentations, classroom discussions, and problem sets. Syllabus: This syllabus is subject to change at any time. Changes in reading assignments and discussion topics may be announced in class. Students are responsible for all materials on this syllabus unless instructed otherwise by the professor, plus any additional materials assigned in class. readings are available on CTools ( Full citations are provided in the bibliography section of this syllabus. Please do the assigned readings before class. Come prepared to discuss them and to provide examples that illustrate points raised in the readings. You will be responsible for all assigned materials, whether or not they are discussed in class. Prerequisites: PUBPOL 529 (Statistics) or its equivalent is required for this course. PUBPOL 569 (Applied Regression Analysis) or its equivalent is strongly recommended. Assignments and Grading: Problem sets must be submitted at the beginning of the class period on the day they are due. Assignments submitted late will be docked one-third of a letter grade (i.e., from A- to B+) for each day they are submitted past the due date. Any questions about grades must be raised in writing within two weeks of the time the test/problem set is returned. Your grade will be determined by the following assignments/activities. 1. Three problem sets (#1=20%, #2=25%, #3=25%). The first problem set is intended to enhance your knowledge of regression analysis. The second and third test your knowledge of experimental and quasiexperimental evaluation concepts, and provide experience analyzing data from real evaluations. Use of Stata is required. 2. Critical assessment (25%). Each Master s student will select a published evaluation and write a 7-10 page memo assessing and critiquing the evaluation methodology. Ph.D. students will write conduct a longer and more detailed assessment. Evaluations must be approved by Professor Gerber by December 1. Memos/ assessments are due at 12:00 noon on Monday December 15 in 5228 Weill Hall. 3. Class participation (5%). Students are expected to regularly attend class, complete all assigned readings before class, and participate actively and intelligently in all class discussions. If you know you are going to have to miss class, please let me and John know beforehand. Office Hours: Professor Gerber will hold weekly office hours Tuesdays from 1:00-3:00 in 5228 Weill Hall or by appointment. John English will hold office hours Fridays from 12:00-2:00 in 3202 Weill Hall or by appointment. 1
2 Writing Assistance/tutoring: David Morse and Elena Delbanco are available by appointment to providing writing assistance. Please consider making an appointment with them if you want/need help with your critical assessment paper.

3 Daily Schedule 1: Introduction to the course, review of syllabus. (September 3) We will begin with a review of the syllabus. We will then provide a broad picture of program evaluation, addressing questions such as: What is program evaluation? What is evaluated -- programs? projects? policies? laws? Why are programs evaluated? What is the history of program evaluation? 1(a): Rossi et al, Chapter 1 1(b): Rossi et al, Chapter 2, pp : STRIVE evaluation. (September 8) We will watch a video about a job training evaluation and complete a group exercise that requires you to begin to think critically about programs and policies. none 3: Program theory. (September 10) Before we can evaluate a program or policy, we need to know what outcomes they are expected to alter. What is the theory that guides the design of the program or policy? Are there competing theories that need to be considered? Do these alternative theories imply different effects on the given outcomes, and do they imply that additional outcomes may be affected? A good theory will explicitly identify each of the linkages necessary to translate the program or policy into the anticipated effect on the desired outcome. Reading 3(a): Rossi et al, Chapters 3 and 5 4, 5, 6, 7: Refresher on the basics of regression analysis. (September 15, 17, 22, 24) Regression analysis is used in the vast majority of evaluations. The objective of these four sessions is to bring you up to speed with the basic ideas of regression analysis. At the end of the four classes, you should know how to read and interpret regression output and be familiar with the assumptions of OLS. Moreover, you should understand the concept of omitted variable bias, which will be used extensively during the course. 4(a): Lewis-Beck, Applied Regression. Sage University Papers Series, #22. 4(b): Berry and Feldman, Multiple Regression in Practice. Sage University Papers Series, #50. 8: Introduction to impact analysis. (September 29) This class session will serve as an introduction to and overview of impact analysis. The following topics will be covered: a. Definition of impact analysis and the questions it is intended to answer b. Establishment of terminology used in impact analyses, e.g., treatment, policy, program c. Description of the fundamental problem d. Overview of alternative strategies for impact analysis e. Discussion of construct, conclusion, internal, and external validity 3
4 Reading 8(a): Rossi et al, Chapter 7. 9: Experimental designs: understanding the concept. (October 1) The topics covered include the following: a. Theory of experimental design b. Advantages of experiments c. Disadvantages of experiments 9(a): Rossi et al, Chapter 8. 9(b): Burtless, Gary The Case for Randomized Field Trials in Economic and Policy Research. Journal of Economic Perspectives. 9(2): Problem set #1 due at the beginning of class. 10: Experimental designs: applications. (October 6) Throughout the course, we will read and discuss actual evaluations from various fields that employ designs and demonstrate concepts that we are covering in class. The first experimental evaluation is a large-scale HUD evaluation/demonstration program. The full report is 341 pages long. All students are responsible for carefully reading the Executive Summary; group of students will be assigned to lead the class discussion on specific aspects of the methodology. Reading 10(a): U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Policy Development and Research MTO for Fair Housing Demonstration Program: Interim Impacts Evaluation. 11: Experimental designs: applications. (October 8) The second experimental evaluation analyzes evidence from a public health field experiment in Malawi. Please read and be ready to discuss the entire study. Reading 11(a): Thornton, Rebecca The Demand for and Impact of Learning HIV Status: Evidence from a Field Experiment, working paper. 12. Randomization exercise. (Oct 13) As a class, we will select a program and design a randomized control trial and evaluation. Students should come to class with ideas for programs/treatments. We will also hand back and discuss the first problem set. 13: Quasi-experimental designs: introduction (October 15) This class marks the beginning of our coverage of quasi-experimental program evaluations. This is the most difficult part of the course, and arguably the most important. The vast majority of evaluations use quasiexperimental designs, the quality of quasi-experimental designs varies greatly, and many of the designs use quite sophisticated statistical and econometric techniques. Our goal is to become familiar with the various approaches so that you can understand them and ask critical questions about the evaluations that use these approaches. The first class will provide an overview of quasi-experimental designs. 4

Moreover, a high quality process analysis can enhance the impact study. We will spend two class periods talking about the goals of process analyses and the methods used to conduct them. In addition, we will review examples of high quality process studies. Reading 23(a): Rossi et al. Chapter 6. 24: Process and implementation analysis: applications.
