Assignment 3: Application: Evaluation Project
Part 5: Evaluation Tool
Proper measurement requires identifying the correct measurement tool. Would you measure a patient’s temperature using a meat thermometer? Without the correct tool, any answer that you generate to a question of interest will have little or no basis in reality. Similarly, when seeking to answer a PICO question, you must ensure that you have the right evaluation tool for the situation. An evaluation tool should make reliable and valid measurements that are relevant to the question at hand. In this part of your Evaluation Project, you select an evaluation tool that you believe to be most appropriate for use in addressing your PICO question. You also develop a plan for utilizing the selected tool in your evaluation process.
To prepare:
To complete Part 5 of this Evaluation Project:
By Day Thursday 1/18/17
In a 2- to 3-page paper,
1) Describe the evaluation tool that you selected for your Evaluation Project.
2) Provide a rationale for your selection, and summarize the criteria you will use to define the success of the evaluation.
3) Develop a plan for utilizing the tool for your Evaluation Methodology Plan. If the tool that you selected is not on the AHRQ website, provide evidence that it is a valid and reliable tool.
