The Most Significant Change Technique (MSC) is a monitoring and evaluation (M&E) technique/ method used for evaluating complex interventions. It was developed by Rick Davies as part of his PhD associated the monitoring and evaluation of a rural development program in Bangladesh. At that time Davies named it "the evolutionary approach to organizational learning". Later Jess Dart experimented with MSC as part of her PhD and in 2000 Davies and Dart coined the term "Most Significant Change Technique" and wrote the User guide. This relatively new method is based on a qualitative, participatory approach, with stakeholders involved in all aspects of the evaluation and is therefore is a shift away from conventional quantitative, expert driven evaluation methods toward a qualitative participant driven approach, focusing on the human impact of interventions. In essence, MSC involves the generation of significant change stories by various stakeholders involved in the intervention. These are stories of significant changes caused by the intervention. The more significant of these stories are then selected by the stakeholders and in depth discussions of these stories take place. These discussions bring to the stakeholders attention the impacts of the intervention that have the most significant effects on the lives of the beneficiaries.〔Rick Davies,Jess Dart ''The Most Significant Change (MSC) Technique: A Guide to Its Use'' (2005) ()〕 ==Steps involved in the most significant change process== There are 10 steps involved in the most significant change process # Starting and raising interest # Defining the domains of change # Defining the reporting period # Collecting significant change stories # Selecting the most significant of these stories # Feeding back the results of the selection process # Verification of stories # Quantification # Secondary analysis and meta-monitoring # Revising the system 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Most significant change technique」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
