3. Define and discuss a variables list and the five steps involved with the data management process (provide examples where appropriate). In addition, list and address the steps to reading a table and utilize the table on p. 349 of the Frank Hagan text for examples.

4. List and define each of the seven steps to performing evaluation research. After listing and defining each step, devote at least a paragraph to each step in a discussion of the concept as well as one or more relevant examples.
