Evaluations

I recognize there is a huge time crunch towards the end, during which I am doing basically two distinct activities at once. This is a problem. I must shorten the time somewhere else, but where? I know evaluations are CRUCIAL for future program development, but I need to find a way to make it super fast and easy. Or alternatively, move some of the items off my agenda.
