Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Abstract As complexity in human social‐technical systems grows so does the need to provide useable guidance for how to effectively create change within them. A design‐driven approach to evaluation draws on lessons from complexity science and incorporates service and product design knowledge into the process of creating and implementing new knowledge or actions into a setting to produce value (innovation). This article introduces the fundamental tenets of a design‐driven evaluation (DDE) approach and illustrates its use in developing frameworks for evaluation that can support innovation and program development. Drawing on the science of systems and their application to evaluation, Developmental and Principles‐focused Evaluation, and systems‐oriented design theory and practice, a model for innovation development is proposed that will reframe program evaluation as both a service and product to aid system change.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
