DLOG757 - Evaluating Engagement
Course Description
We may have an instinct that it’s important to engage with stakeholders on a given issue, but how do we demonstrate that what we're doing is ‘working’? How do we know we’ve chosen the right tools, and that we’re engaging the right people? How do we know we’re even asking the right questions, or if we’re making an impact?
Based on the premise that evaluation should always be useful, this course includes primers on key evaluation concepts such as typical evaluation approaches, theory of change models, and how to develop an evaluation plan. Above all, it will teach you how to employ evaluative thinking as a learning strategy, in order to strengthen your work and achieve greater impact.
You will have the opportunity to apply course material to your own work. We encourage you to have in mind an engagement project you’d like to evaluate to work on, or you may use a provided case study.
