routine data that measures program progress towards achieving program objectives and used to track changes in program performance overtime.

Answer 2

Monitoring

Question 3

It measures how well the program activities have
met expected objectives and the extent to which changes in
outcomes can be attributed to the program or
intervention.

Answer 3

Evaluation

Question 4

Assesses whether an intervention/model was implemented as planned, whether the target population
was reached, and what were the major challenges and
successful strategies.

Answer 4

Assess Evaluation

Question 7

Objectives of Monitoring and Evaluation

Answer 7

To improve the management and optimum use of the
resources of a Program and to make timely decisions to
resolve constraints and/or problems of implementation.

Question 8

• Is a fundamental document of any program
• It relates the objectives and activities to the
  problems the program in trying to address and
  shows how indicators and tools measure
  achievement of objectives
• It states how a program will measure its
  achievements and therefore provide
  accountability

Answer 8

Monitoring and Evaluation Plan

Question 9

Functions of M&E Plan are:

Answer 9

• State how the program is going to measure what
  it has achieved (ensure accountability)
• Document consensus (encourage transparency
  and responsibility)
• Guide M&E implementation (standardization
  and coordination)
