Evaluation 101, November 16, 2009, 9am -12pm
Presenters: Saul Rockman
This workshops offers practitioners as well as evaluators an
introduction to the range of issues and approaches to formative and
summative evaluation. The workshop is based on the content of an
existing, freely-available and accessible website focused on
evaluation in informal settings. Participants explore components of
evaluation strategies and review labs on the site that are available
for post-workshop reference.
Logic Model Workshop, November 16, 2009, 1-4pm
Presenter: Joe E. Heimlich
This workshop introduces techniques useful in facilitating diverse
stakeholder groups through the development of a logic model. Using a
thought-provoking, practical, and fun format, the workshop leader
facilitates participation in a Mock Logic Development Stakeholder
Meeting. Interspersed “sidebar discussions” allow reflection on the
group process. Workshop content includes introduction of relevant
theory, research findings, and lessons learned from experience.
Knowledge about facilitating stakeholder groups is enhanced by
exploration of concepts like granulation, flow, linking, clustering,
forks in the road, identifying audiences, and “hot spots.”
