Explanation:
Data Sources
In program evaluation, methods of data collection beyond first-hand research exist. Data retrieved first-hand is known as primary data, but data retrieved from preexisting sources is known as secondary data.
Primary Data Collection
Primary data sources include information collected and processed directly by the researcher, such as observations, surveys, interviews, and focus groups.
Secondary Data Collection
Secondary data sources include information retrieved through preexisting sources: research articles, Internet or library searches, etc. Preexisting data may also include records and data already within the program: publications and training materials, financial records, student/client data, performance reviews of staff, etc.
