Can Knowledge of Evolutionary Biology and Ecology Inform Evaluation?

I posted a longish piece (~3,500 words) on my website with the same title as this post. Section headings are:

• Case: Early childhood parent support
  • Program design
  • Evaluation design
• Some useful concepts from evolutionary biology and ecology
  • Population
  • Coevolution
  • Birth/death rates
  • Selection pressure
  • Species and species variation
• What would the evaluation look like if its design were informed by knowledge of evolutionary biology and ecology?
  • Populations, and birth/death rates
  • Coevolution and population
  • Selection pressure
  • Species and species variation
• Do we gain anything from applying an evolutionary lens?
  • Paradigmatic concepts
  • Methodology

I’m always interested in having people point out the error of my ways.
