Sammendrag	Evaluation-oriented multilevel mixed methods is a research design that combines quantitative and qualitative data across hierarchically nested levels of an organization or system — such as students within classrooms within schools — to evaluate a program, policy, or intervention. By capturing outcomes, processes, and contextual factors simultaneously at each level, this design produces richer evaluative inferences than either purely statistical multilevel models or single-level qualitative evaluations alone.	Program evaluation is a systematic, empirically grounded process of collecting and analyzing information about a program to determine its merit, worth, or significance. Applied across education, public health, social services, and policy, it addresses questions such as whether a program is reaching its target population, whether it is being implemented as designed, and whether it is producing the intended outcomes. It draws on both quantitative and qualitative methods and serves accountability, improvement, or knowledge-generation purposes.
