Abstract

In recent years evaluators have been using photography as one method for collecting data in qualitative evaluatron studies. The public nature of photographs have ethical implications for application in evaluation practice. Of primary ethical concern are the issues of honesty and accurate representation in the sampling plan, proposed use of the photographs, and selection and interpretation of the photographs for presentation. Additional considerations include costs and benefits for the evaluator, clients, participants, and society.
