The Program Evaluation KnowledgeBase : Element 2 : Activity 1 : Task 3: Collect Data

Guideline: Collecting the data should be consistent with the identified data elements and the selected collection methods. When collecting data, only collect what you will use, revise your procedures based on your experience, and apply what you have learned from the evaluation to update future data collection procedures.

These guidelines deal with the ethical considerations involved in conducting survey research with children and young people for both economic and sociological purposes. ESOMAR, originally founded as the European Society for Opinion and Marketing Research, is the "world association of research professionals."

The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) is a federal law designed to protect the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools receiving funds under any applicable U.S. Department of Education program. School districts should ensure all staff members and interpreters are familiar with the applicable policies on the privacy of student records.

A research activity involves human subjects if the activity is research, as defined in the U.S. Department of Education’s regulations, and the research activity will involve use of human subjects, as defined in the regulations. Such activities must follow the Regulations for the Protection of Human Subjects. When developing a program evaluation, it is important to keep these restrictions in mind.
