- - - - To access policy consequences
        
        To suggest policy change
        
        To suggest policy termination
        
        if the policy is not necessary, the policy need to be terminated in order to reform another policy that could help in solving the area of issue i.e the cost of black shoes is more expensive compare to white shoe, therefore government have taken an initiatives to allow both colors to be used in school.
        
        to figure whether the implementation of the policy is valid and suitable in order to improve the planning and implementation of policy process i.e Ministry of education figures out that it will long lasting and ease the burden of the parent if they buy black shoes for their children compares to white shoes.
        
        the intended policy must brings benefit or effects in their area i.e Ministry of Education allowed students to use black or white shoes to school starting year 2010 in condition the color of socks must be the same as the shoes.
      - to check the successfulness of the implementation of the policy
- - - - Side effects
        
        Data problems
        
        Methodological problems
        
        Cost
        
        Distribution of impact
        
        How much is enough
        
        2 more items...
        
        Policy may not have equal impact to the people
        
        Amount to evaluate policy
        
        Can be a diversion from the delivery of the policy program
        
        Target population with the same or related objectives is hard to evaluate since evaluator may not know which program produces an effect
        
        Important data to asses the impact may be unsuitable or unavailable
        
        The policy that are being evaluated might be impacted by other policies
        
        Will be difficult to identify the side effects
      - Criteria for policy success not clearly defined
        
        The question of how it become success will arise and will be judged
- - - - Cost Benefit Analysis technique
        
        Institutional technique
        
        Purpose is to evaluate the behavior of the policy implementors, hence to achieved policy efficiency and effectiveness
        
        Advantages:
        
        Its accounts are maintained on an institutional basis.
        
        Disadvantages:
        
        Not sufficiently critical and analytical.
        
        A formal, quantitative evaluation technique
        
        Identify and weigh costs against benefits of policy or program
        
        Disadvantages:
        
        Inaccurate Calculations of Present Value Resulting in Misleading Analyses
        
        Increased Subjectivity for Intangible Costs and Benefits
        
        Advantages:
        
        Clarity in Unpredictable Situations such as identify and evaluate each upcoming expenditure
      - Policy is evaluated through scientific research, by the relevant group / agencies that involve directly and indirectly in the implementation process
      - Advantages:
        
        Control and Sense of Process
        
        Easy to Execute and Understand
        
        Disadvantages:
        
        Greater Risk of Data Manipulation
- - - - Evaluating policy impact
        
        Evaluating policy implementation process
        
        Evaluating policy successful/failure factors
        
        Political scrutiny and desires for quick production of results.
        
        Access to appropriate data
        
        Difficulty in identifying appropriate comparison communities.
      - Fear of evaluation and familiarity with policy evaluation methods
