Evaluation questions - eller på dansk Evalueringsspørgsmål - er de spørgsmål, som evalueringen skal give svar på.

"Evaluation questions are constructed so that the issues and concerns of a program’s stakeholders about program performance can be articulated and to focus the evaluation to help ensure that its findings are useful (GAO 2004). It is important to work with the evaluation requester to formulate the right question to ensure that the completed evaluation will meet his or her information needs. Care should be taken at this step because evaluation questions frame the scope of the assessment and drive the evaluation design—the selection of data to collect and comparisons to make"
