Scoping Evaluation – Uses, Questions and Scaling

New

This online session will address how to scope the requirements and boundaries of your evaluation in terms of purposes, questions and scaling. It will particularly explore how evaluation could be used constructively and strategically, and five potential areas that you could explore in your evaluation. This is the second step in the 6-Step Evaluation Process. The session will comprise of practical guidance, opportunities for discussion, and introduce some practical resources you can use in your own evaluation planning.

Any staff responsible for the delivery and evaluation of Access & Participation interventions, whether it's outreach work with potential applicants or current students. Any level of experience is welcome, though the course is aimed at those newer to the evaluation of programmes/interventions, or those looking to embed a new structured approach and expand their evaluation beyond participant feedback or impact evaluation.

• Identify how evaluation can be used constructively and strategically
• Determine what you want / need to know from the evaluation
