Today we are going to talk about two words that are often confused, but that have different meanings: evaluation and research. Although both are techniques used to obtain information and knowledge, they are carried out for different purposes. Let's understand better! Evaluation is a process of analysis and judgment of something, be it an object, an idea, a project, a performance, among others. It involves the collection and analysis of relevant data and information to determine the value, quality, effectiveness, or viability of the object evaluated. Assessment is often performed by experts in a particular area and can be used to make decisions, make improvements, or provide recommendations. On the other hand, research is a process of investigation and search for new or in-depth knowledge about a particular subject. It involves collecting data, analyzing existing information, conducting experiments or studies, reviewing the literature, and formulating hypotheses. Research is conducted with the aim of discovering new information, testing theories, validating results or contributing to scientific knowledge. In short, evaluation is more focused on the analysis and judgment of something already existing, while research seeks new information and knowledge. Evaluation can be used to make decisions and improve something that already exists, while research is more exploratory and seeks to expand knowledge in a certain area. Let's take an example to illustrate the differences between evaluation and research. Imagine that you want to analyze the effectiveness of a training program in a company. In this case, you could conduct an evaluation to determine if the program is meeting its goals by analyzing employee performance data, feedback, and results achieved. On the other hand, if you want to understand how the human brain learns and what the best training methods are, you would need to perform a p --auto
