One Definition: It is an approach to evaluation that requires surfacing the assumptions on which the program is based in considerable detail: what activities are being conducted, what effect each particular activity will have, what the program does next, what the expected response is, what happens next, and so on, to the expected outcomes.(Suchman 1967; Weiss 1972, 1995, 1997, 1998; Bickman 1990; Chen 1990; Chen and Rossi 1987; Costner 1989; Finney and Moos 1989).

Outputs Inputs Any evaluation strategy or approach that explicitly integrates and uses stakeholder, social science, some combination of, or other types of theories in conceptualizing, designing, conducting, interpreting, and applying an evaluation.(Coryn, Noakes, Westin, & Schroter, 2011) Second Definition: Black Box Who's Who in TBE Carol Weiss Evaluation is the systematic assessment of the operation and/or the outcomes of a program or policy, compared to a set of explicit or implicit standards, as a means of contributing to the improvement of the program or policy. Weiss (1998) p. 4 TBE should influence policy Evaluators need an evaluation appreciation Peter Rossi and Huey Chen Program theory is defined as a set of explicit or implicit assumptions by stakeholders about what action is required to solve a social, educationalor health problem and why the problem will respond to this action. The purpose of theory-driven evaluation is not only to assess whether an intervention works or does not work, but also how and why it does so. Chen, 2012 Evaluation needs to examine the black box Leonard Bickman Program theory is the construction of a plausible and sensible model of how a program is supposed to work.Bickman, 1987 Other Researchers Edward Suchman Timothy Hasci Anthony Rogers Tracy Huebner Ray Pawson Nick Tilley
