Whew! Its been like how long?

I see I haven't posted anything here since April. That is probably because I have nothing to write about when I have time, and when I have time to write, I can't think of anything to write about. So here are a list of things I would like to address at some stage:

* What people think a focus group is and what it really is
* Rapid assessment methods - differences in approaches (I need to draw up a table based on that AJE article I read yesterday)
* When people should consider appointing an evaluation specialist rather than a content specialist for certain evaluations.
* If evaluators do strategic planning, what is it that they should know about planning AND if planners or anybody else does evaluations what is it they need to know about evaluations
* People say evaluation is a meta-discipline. Why do they say that.
*All this talk about accreditation is just confusing everybody. What does it mean and what about the international body of work that has been done on this aspect?
