政策係指被接納或提議去達成某一情況或目標的行動方案，其可同時適用於政府機關、私人企業機構，以及各種社會組織。就政府機關而言，政策的層次性最高 ，其次為計畫 (plan)，再其次為方案 (program)，接著為措施 (measure)，最後為行動 (action)。而政策規劃則是指決策者或分析人員為解決政策問題，採取科學方法，廣泛蒐集資訊，設計一套以目標取向、變革取向、選擇取向、理性取向、集體取向之未來行動替選方案的動態過程。另評估是指運用研究技術衡量某一特定方案的過去績效，尤其是該方案對欲解決的問題或欲改善情境的影響狀況，目的在改進方案的執行技術、程序與其他運作事項，以達成政策目標。本課程以上述概念的探討為基礎，進而以政府施政計畫規劃、執行與評估為說明要項，希望兼顧理論與實務案例兩個面向，增進同學對本課程的瞭解。

Policy refers to an accepted or proposed course of action to achieve a certain situation or goal, which may apply to government agencies, private business institutions, and various social organizations. As far as government agencies are concerned, policies have the highest level, followed by plans, then programs, then measures, and finally actions. Policy planning refers to the dynamic process in which decision-makers or analysts adopt scientific methods, collect extensive information, and design a set of future action alternatives that are goal-oriented, change-oriented, choice-oriented, rational-oriented, and collective-oriented in order to solve policy problems. In addition, evaluation refers to the use of research techniques to measure the past performance of a specific program, especially the impact of the program on the problem to be solved or the situation to be improved, with the purpose of improving the implementation technology, procedures and other operational matters of the program to achieve policy goals. This course is based on the discussion of the above concepts, and then uses the planning, implementation and evaluation of government policy programs as illustrative items. It is hoped that both theoretical and practical case aspects will be taken into consideration to enhance students' understanding of this course.
