交互式在线日记是评估项目实施的一种新方法，它提供了评估人员和项目实施人员之间的实时沟通。评价小组可以指导调查路线，并确保随着执行工作的发展收集数据。当与传统的评估策略一起使用时，互动式在线日记可以深入了解项目实施情况，以及项目工作人员面临的挑战和他们开发的解决方案。交互式在线日记还可以帮助评估人员解决诸如自我报告偏见、记录项目进展以及在开发过程中捕捉实施者的持续见解等挑战。否则，这些见解可能会在评价过程中丢失。作者描述了这种在线方法的开发和使用，以评估一个基金会赞助的项目，以改善医生办公室的预防保健。该计划包括17个基于实践的研究网络及其参与的初级保健实践。
Interactive online diaries are a novel approach for evaluating project implementation and provide real-time communication between evaluation staff members and those implementing a program. Evaluation teams can guide the lines of inquiry and ensure that data are captured as implementation develops. When used together with conventional evaluation strategies, interactive online diaries allow for an in-depth understanding of project implementation, as well as the challenges program staff members confront and the solutions they develop. Interactive online diaries also can help evaluators address challenges such as self-reporting bias, documenting project evolution, and capturing implementers' ongoing insights as they develop. These insights might otherwise be lost to the evaluation process. The authors describe the development and use of this online approach in the evaluation of a foundation-sponsored program to improve the provision of preventive care in physicians' offices. The program included 17 practice-based research networks and their participating primary care practices.
