Evaluating Fellowship programming is a complex task that classically involves long, extractive surveys and dry reports. But what if evaluations could engage program participants in a way that builds on program outcomes? This session will discuss two evaluation methods – Social Network Analysis and Most Significant Change – that do just that while still providing rigorous evidence around what programs have accomplished. Join KSU and IREX to hear about their experiences implementing these methods, learn tips for trying SNA and MSC yourself, and discuss the advantages and limitations of each method in various contexts.
