| Abstract: Do you want to engage and succeed in collaborative evaluations? Using clear and simple language, the presenter will outline key concepts and effective tools/methods to help master the mechanics of collaboration in the evaluation environment. Building on a theoretical grounding, you will explore how to apply the Model for Collaborative Evaluations (MCE) to real-life evaluations, with a special emphasis on those factors that facilitate and inhibit stakeholders' participation. Using discussion, demonstration, hands-on exercises and small group work, each section deals with fundamental factors contributing to the six model components that must be mastered in order to succeed in collaborations. You will gain a deep understanding of how to develop collaborative relationships in the evaluation context. |
