สรุป	Evaluation-focused explanatory sequential mixed methods is a two-phase research design in which a quantitative evaluation phase — typically measuring program outcomes, treatment effects, or performance indicators — is conducted first and then followed by a qualitative phase specifically designed to explain, contextualise, or interpret the quantitative findings. The design is widely used in program evaluation, policy research, and educational assessment where numbers reveal what happened but qualitative data reveal why.	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.
