Critique of Evaluation Plans From Multiple Viewpoints

Discussion #1: Critique of Evaluation Plans From Multiple Viewpoints

Regardless of the system being evaluated, different stakeholders will want to garner different types of information from an evaluation. For example, an information technology professional may seek information about system errors, a staff manager may want information about time expenditures, and an accountant may want data related to a system’s cost-effectiveness. As the nurse informaticist who is conducting the system evaluations, you must be able to anticipate and cater to the informational demands of stakeholders to help guide the evaluation planning process and produce more meaningful evaluations.

For this Discussion, you assume the perspective of both a funder and a hospital’s chief information officer (CIO) to generate questions on a colleague’s evaluation plan presentation.

To prepare:

• Review the presentation to which you were assigned. (SEE ATTACHED PDF FILE)
• Assuming the role of a funder, formulate three questions you would ask to gather more information about this project.
• Next, assuming the role of the CIO of a hospital, formulate three questions you would ask to gather more information on this project from an administrative viewpoint.
• Consider any insights you have gained through reviewing your colleague’s evaluation plan.

By Tomorrow 02/07/2017 post a minimum of 1 to 2-page in APA format and at least 2 scholarly references. Include the level one headings as numbered below:
