Meaning

An evaluation is when you look at your results to decide if they are right or you think about your method to see if it could be improved to get better results.

About Evaluations

You can evaluate your results by comparing them to the results you expected or the results from other people. This allows you to decide whether to trust your results or whether you need to find a way to improve your experiment.
You can evaluate your method by trying to find things that went wrong or were not good enough. You can then write an improved method using that evaluation to try again.
