STAKE'S RESPONSIVE MODEL

This model, developed by Robert Stake (1975), gives emphasis Of the

description of the evaluation program and the evaluation process. The model
has the following characteristics. (Stake's Responsive Model is about listening
to everyone, understanding what really happens in schools, talking to people,
focusing on actions rather than just goals, choosing the most important things
to look at, and using all this information to make things better.)
1. It focuses on the concerns and issues of teachers, students, parents as
well as school administrators. (This model pays attention to what
teachers, students, parents, and school leaders care about. By
considering everyone's thoughts and worries, the evaluation becomes
more complete.)
2. It emphasizes on the evaluation that occurs in school or the place where
learning takes place. (It focuses on checking how things work in schools
or places where people learn. This helps to understand if the educational
system is effective in its environment.)
3. It prefers qualitative methods and techniques in evaluating. (Instead of
just numbers, this model prefers talking to people and listening to their
stories. This way, we can understand better how the educational program
is working and how people feel about it.)
4. It presents more of the program activities than the learning intents/ goals
and objectives. (Instead of only looking at what the educational program
aims to achieve, this model pays more attention to what actually happens
day-to-day. It's about understanding the activities and practices in the
program.)
5. It guides the evaluators to focus more on issues that are of priority. (It
helps to decide which problems or good things we should pay the most
attention to. This makes the evaluation more effective by focusing on what
matters most.)
6. It leads to good decision making as it addresses the concerns and queries
of the participants in the evaluation. (By listening to everyone involved in
the educational program and understanding their concerns, this model
helps to make smart decisions. It gives valuable information to improve
how things are done.)

Game Show: (Script)

Ralph: Welcome to Ting (bell sounds 3x) Gameshow. And here is your host
Maiz Tayabas
Host: Hello everyone! Here’s how the game is played. Ralph will read a
question or trial, the players must run to the bell. The first one to press it will
have the chance to answer and get a point. The person who will get the
highest points will be held the winner. Do you get it players?

Players: Yes!

Ralph: Todays Category will be The Steps in Evaluating using the Stake's
Responsive Model.
Host: So here’s your trial question.
Ralph: The evaluator meets with stakeholders to gain a sense of their
perspectives and intentions regarding the evaluation. What step is this?
Answer: Step 1.
Host: Step 1? That is right! Now let’s go to the next question

Ralph: The evaluator draws on such discussions and the analysis of any
documents to determine the scope of the evaluation. What step is it?

Answer: Step 2

Host: Very good player2! now you got 20 points

Raplh: Fill in the blank: Step 3 says, The evaluator ___________ the program
closely to get a sense of its operation and to note any unintended deviations
from announced intents.

Answer: observes

Host: Very good asnwer player!

Ralph: For your Final trial, you must arrange the steps in evaluating using the
stakes responsive model.
Host: here you can see the steps, and here are the possible answer for this.
First one to press the bell will have the chance to arrange it from step1-9. This
will be 30points.

Host: 123 go..

Steps
 The evaluator meets with stakeholders to gain a sense of their
perspectives and intentions regarding the evaluation.
 The evaluator draws on such discussions and the analysis of any
documents to determine the scope of the evaluation.
 The evaluator observes the program closely to get a sense of its operation
and to note any unintended deviations from announced intents.
 The evaluator discovers the stated and real purposes of the project and
the concerns that various audiences have about it and the evaluation.
 The evaluator discovers the stated and real purposes of the project and
the concerns that various audiences have about it and the evaluation.
 The evaluator selects the means needed to acquire the data desired.
Most often, the means will be human observers.
 The evaluator implements the data-collection procedures.
 The evaluator organizes the information into themes and prepares
"portrayals" that communicate in natural ways the thematic reports. The
portrayals may involve videotapes, artifacts, case studies or other "faithful
representations.
 By again being sensitive to the concerns of the stakeholders, the
evaluator decides which audiences require which reports and chooses
formats most appropriate for given audiences.
