  Polemical notes on educational evaluation in the age of 'policy hysteria'
 
 
Title: Polemical notes on educational evaluation in the age of 'policy hysteria'
Author: Stronach, Ian
Morris, Brian
Appeared in: Evaluation & research in education
Paging: Volume 8 (1994) nr. 1-2 pages 5-19
Year: 1994
Contents: The authors identify a number of changes in educational policy development in the UK, such as shortening cycles of reform, multiple innovation, frequent policy switches, shifting meanings within reforms and untested success claims. Taken together, these changes constitute the phenomenon of 'policy hysteria'. It is argued that, within this context, much of what has passed for evaluation has been 'conformative' in nature rather than independent and critical.
