Participatory Evaluation: Theories + Methods for Remote Work

Participatory Evaluation: Theories and Methods for Remote Work” from Evaluation + Learning Consulting, brought to our attention from the Minnesota Department of Education. 

"I like this idea (from the attached) for our webinars: Use as an icebreaker in the beginning of a session, or to stimulate participants by challenging them to think and encouraging their direct participation. A moderator sends a poll to the group with a series of provocative but non-divisive questions phrased in an agree/disagree format. All those who agree with the question can be asked to click agree and those who disagree can click disagree. Explanation for the varying views can be solicited from members of each respective group. It is important that the moderators keep the tone light throughout this activity so that participants feel safe expressing their views.
