title: [Development of the concept of evaluation in educational programmes].
abstract: The term evaluation has only recently found its place in educational terminology, in Poland. As in other domains, it has now become established, but even today there are studies in which such terms as control or assessment of teaching, without mentioning evaluation, are used. In the leading Polish education dictionary by Okon from 1984, there is no entry under evaluation. However, the concept of educational evaluation has been taken up in many pedagogic works by the 1990. The precise functions, the object of evaluation and the information needed should be well defined with respect to the evaluated programme. A ISO the criteria must be spelled out and the values of the planners and of the consumers ought to be concordant. This paper attempts to show the trends and the developing concepts in educational evaluation and their significant at the time of Poland's accession to the European Union.
