Title: Training in dealing with child abuse in schools: problems in evaluating course effectiveness
Author: Darby, Jenny A.
Appeared in: Emotional and behavioural difficulties
Paging: Volume 11 (2006) nr. 4 pages 261-271

Contents: Teachers play an important part in identifying child maltreatment but find dealing with it difficult. This study examines the problems involved with evaluating a countywide training programme on this topic for senior teachers. The course was run 17 times and 60% of the participants attending were sent an evaluation questionnaire three months after taking part. There was a 49% response rate. It was found that the activities undertaken by the participants after the course were a greater reflection of the effort required than of the effectiveness of the course. It is argued that this factor should be taken into account when conducting and interpreting any course evaluation.
