I made a second error in my post about Dr. Bill Carlyon when I included Judy Drolet as a Saluki Ph.D. alum. While she is a member of the SIU-C faculty, Judy earned her Ph.D. in te great state of Oregon.

Dear colleagues:=20
I am currently teaching the Evaluation of Health Promotion programs class and I have a session on ethics during evaluation. Can someone share with me any resources ( articles, books) you might have on this specific topic? I do have some general information on ethics in public health and health promotion, but I was looking for something again specific on evaluation.=20
Any help will be greatly appreciated.=20
Thanks,=20

The American Journal of Evaluation (AJE) maintains a (somewhat regular) column on "ethical challenges" from which I have taken several articles/activities for use in my graduate-level evaluation class.
Specifically:
--an article by Leslie Cooksy (AJE, 2005, vol 26, issue 3): "The complexity of the IRB process: Some of the things you wanted to know about IRBs but were afraid to ask"; --the series "You want to ask them WHAT?" (AJE, 2003, vol 24, issue 1); and --the series "The case of the sensitive survey" (AJE, 2000, vol 21, issue 2).
I have also incorporated the program evaluation standards (see the Joint Committee on Standards for Educational Evaluation;
http://www.wmich.edu/evalctr/jc/) into such teaching on ethics and evaluation (specifically, the standard on 'propriety').

"Imagine what it might be like in 20 years if our efforts are successful and people could once again govern themselves. A line would be carefully drawn between corporations and the state, reducing financial influence over elections and lawmaking, making possible a whole new generation of progressive elected officials committed to social transformation. Imagine that the institutions of the global economy are overhauled so that labor and environmental issues are integrated into trade policies, and impoverished nations are freed from unpayable international debts. Trade and investment rules promote fair exchange, and national governments have the policy space to support social and environmental goals at home." http://yesmagazine.org/article.asp?ID=1825
