Evaluation Activity: (e) Valuation
Rather than conducting a traditional evaluation – in which people focus on what was wrong, where the process failed and what the problems were – this exercise takes an appreciative approach and looks for ways to build on success and identify wishes and aspirations for the future. As such, the questions aim to investigate moments of excellence and help people to reconnect with their vision for the workshop.
Participants should complete a “valuation” handout, using the following questions (questions can be adapted for the group):
- What was the highlight of the workshop? When was it, and what did you learn?
- What will you take away with you from this workshop?
- How would you like the next gathering to build on this one? What should its focus be?
- What are your three wishes for the workshop organisers that would have made the event even better?
- What suggestions would you make to the facilitators for their continued professional development?
