Ever wondered ‘what is the point in this evaluation’ or ‘is there a better way than yet another survey’?
In this webinar we will address these questions, look at why evaluation is important, how you can make best use of existing data and move beyond the clipboard to explore how evaluation can be fun (yes, really)!
Creative Evaluation is a constellation of approaches that use creative methods, tools and thinking aimed at producing evaluations that foster collaboration, mutual learning, inclusivity and engagement.
Led by Creative Evaluation expert, Violet Owen, in this session you will learn about the 5 principles of Creative Evaluation and hear examples of how Creative Evaluation methods have been used in practice, including ‘feedback teabags’ and Storytelling Evaluation Methodology.
This session is for anyone who is interested in or involved with evaluation and will be particularly relevant for front line public library, archive and other GLAM staff
