The author comments on the lack of evaluation of population education, and argues that such work has been stalled by confusion over what population education is and what it is supposed to do. Contradictory opinions about what is to be included in or excluded from the definition of population education, and whether it should be "value-fair" or "value-based" are cited, as well as various opinions concerning whether the impact should be measured in terms of a difference in knowledge, attitudes, or behavior, over a long or short period. The author suggests that evaluation requires a series of research choices, and proposes a framework for guiding evaluation wherein choices may be made in several dimensions to specify exactly what is being evaluated. 相似文献

Preventing teen Pregnancy and Academic Failure: Experimental Evaluation of a Developmentally Based Approach 总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4

A true experimental evaluation was conducted of a national volunteer service program, Teen Outreach, that was designed to prevent adolescent problem behaviors by enhancing normative processes of social development in high school students. This evaluation addressed 2 problem behaviors in adolescence—teenage pregnancy and school failure—for which experimental evidence about successful preventive programs has been largely lacking. High school students (N=695) in 25 sites nationwide were randomly assigned to either a Teen Outreach or Control group and were assessed at both program entry and at program exit 9 months later. Rates of pregnancy, school failure, and academic suspension at exit were substantially lower in the Teen Outreach group, even after accounting for student sociodemographic characteristics and entry differences between groups. Results are interpreted as suggesting the potential value both of the Teen Outreach Program specifically and also more generally of interventions that seek to prevent problem behaviors by addressing broad developmental tasks of adolescence rather than by focusing upon individual problem behaviors or micro skills. 相似文献

Results of an evaluation of the impact of 1 of 4 population education units offered as part of the 9th grade urban studies curriculum in the Baltimore City school system are reported. The theme of the unit, called B-more or Baltimore, is that Baltimore City has qualities and problems similar to those of other urban areas but is also unique. 908 students exposed to the B-more unit and 205 controls participated in the evaluation in the fall of 1978. Gathering of demographic information on students participating in the evaluation was restricted. The impact of the B-more unit was measured along knowledge, attitude and behavior dimensions through written questionnaires and verbal interview questions. The unit was found to have succeeded in increasing knowledge about Baltimore's resources, increasing ability to utilize these resources, and teaching basic population and urban concepts. Students exposed to the B-more unit were more knowledgeable about their urban environment as illustrated by mapping tasks, and the majority reported that they had learned things that were new and/or important to them from the curriculum. B-more students had more positive attitudes toward the Baltimore suburbs than control students and more negative attitudes toward population growth. Little evidence was noted of changes in behavior resulting from the B-more unit. Recommendations are offered for strengthening the B-more unit and its impact on students. 相似文献
