Main Article Content

Jan Činčera

Abstract

The methodology provides a comprehensive overview of instruments aimed for evaluation of environmental education programmes for adults. It introduces specific featurs of evaluation of programmes focused on this target group and defines relevant variables for environmental education. It compares and contrasts differences between evaluation of community-based programmes, professional training courses, and environmental interpretation programmes. It compares and discusses strategies for their quantitative and qualitative evaluation. Examples of evaluation research from Czech and abroad are provided.
