| Abstract:
Here, we describe the development of logic models depicting selected theories of evaluation practice. We begin with a discussion of the particular theories that were chosen for our analysis, then outline the steps involved in constructing the models. Mark’s (2008) framework for research on evaluation provides the organization to this session. We present that framework and describe its relevance to the examination of evaluation theories.
