| Abstract: At AEA 2008, we had a room full of engaged participants looking for new ideas they could use to help non-evaluators engage in and learn evaluation. We will add to the techniques we shared last year with some new ideas from our toolbox that bring evaluation to life. This year we will include -- learning peripherals, games, and creative expression -- that facilitate active learning of tough evaluation concepts or tasks. We will demonstrate these interactive techniques and provide clear explanations of how we use each to build evaluation capacity. We will discuss their strengths and weaknesses and applications for other evaluation learning purposes, in different settings with different audiences. Bring your own techniques to share. |
