• Program evaluation
• professional development
• technology integration
• Intel Teach Program

At this study Holistic Evaluation Model (HEM), which can be used for evaluating teachers' professional development programs, is proposed. This model is based on context, input, process, participants' learning, organizational support and change, participants' use of new knowledge and skills, student learning outcomes and cost effectiveness analysis. To test HEM Intel Teach Program (ITP) is evaluated. ITP has some problems about context, input and process, ITP supports teachers technology usage skills, there are problems at organizational support and change level, teachers' new knowledge and skills limitedly used at classroom levels and there are very little change at students after ITP. There is little change at class level implementations. So, it can be said that the professional development program could not achieve its goals, and also it can be said that evaluated ITP courses were not cost effective. Consequently, HEM is useful to evaluate the professional development programs for teachers.
