Synopsis

The  unit  is  structured  around an evaluation  model  (Stufflebeam's
C.I.P.P.  model).   This  model serves as a framework  for  an  action
research-type curriculum exercise.  The identification of a classroom-
related problem (Context Evaluation) provides the focus for the design
and  development of a program (Input Evaluation) which is  implemented
and evaluated in the classroom (Process and Product Evaluation).
