Evaluation is a selective exercise that attempts to systematically and objectively assess progress towards and the achievement of an outcome. Evaluation is not a one-time event, but an exercise involving assessments of differing scope and depth carried out at several points in time in response to evolving needs for evaluative knowledge and learning during the effort to achieve an outcome.

La evaluaci&oacute;n es un ejercicio selectivo que intenta valorar de manera sistem&aacute;tica y objetiva el progreso y el logro de un resultado. La evaluaci&oacute;n no es un evento de una sola vez, sino un ejercicio que involucra evaluaciones de diferente alcance y profundidad llevadas a cabo en varios momentos en respuesta a las necesidades cambiantes de conocimiento evaluativo y aprendizaje durante el esfuerzo por lograr un resultado.
