Similarities and differences between the CIPP–SAW evaluation model and the CIPP–WP evaluation model.

This paper aims to show the similarities and differences between the two innovative evaluation models. The innovative evaluation models are called the CIPP–SAW and CIPP–WP evaluation models. The two evaluation models are models that combine an educational evaluation model called CIPP (Context–Input–Process–Product) with a decision support system method called SAW (Simple Additive Weighting) and WP (Weighted Product). The way to obtain the similarities and differences between those two innovative evaluation models through a calculation simulation approach of the two SAW and WP methods integrated with the CIPP model in determining the best recommendations. There are four evaluation aspects and four CIPP evaluation components that are used for the calculation simulation. The simulation results showed five similarities and two differences between the CIPP–SAW evaluation model and the CIPP–WP evaluation model. The impact of this paper on the field of education is to provide positive information to educational evaluators and education observers regarding the similarities and differences between the two innovative evaluation models that combine the educational evaluation model with the decision support system method.
