Underlying this diversity is the search for programme quality. It is the search for understanding and consequently, is the fundamental and most challenging, tsak confronting the evaluator. This volume is divided into four broad sections, each of which conveys a differnt vision of quality that include postmoderm and normative perspectives, practice-driven concerns, and applied examples in the field of education.
