Evaluation……….

……..Why ?


Because………….

We are a movement, not an organisation.

To enable us to move on, we need Feedback.

Without feedback we will not Develop.


Feedback should …………….

Be done by the people taking

part in a given event or

activity

Be objective

Be Enabling

Be Invited


Feedback should (#2)…

Empowering

Something that it is within that

person or groups, power to

change. Be done in accordance with the

Scout promise and Law


Feedback should not…………….

Be Criticism.


Criticism is………..

Usually done for the wrong reasons Doesn’t empower a person Not given with the receivers, best

interests at heart It is delivered without permission


When do we do it ?

As often as is necessary

Should be ongoing

NAOMIE

Definitely at the……………….. End!

We can………….

Evaluate sections or the whole thing !


When do you do it ?

On your own ?

Be careful you can slip into very negative evaluation on your own and not get an objective view

However you can’t help but evaluate in the bath with a beer or glass of wine after Cub camp or Beaver sleepover, can you ?


Evaluate in style You can………...

Be creative Theme it to match the activity Be unobtrusive Be loud & vibrant Have Fun!


When do you evaluate…

Leader Meetings? Section Forums?

Eg; Unit execs, Patrol Councils, Grand Howl etc…

Group Executive Meetings?

Further ideas for evaluation methods can be found in Colony/Pack/Troop/Unit Essentials.


Evaluation Advice

Be selective! Be realistic!

Be creative!

Be careful!

Be honest!

Be balanced!

Be holistic!

Be human!


You will need to be……..

Actively seeking feedback

Truthful with yourselves

Brave


Task

Group Work • 7-10 minutes

In sectional groups brain storm to devise ideas in which you can creatively evaluate an event or activity.

Try to use fun methods such as games, integrate awards for positive thinking and encourage good reviewing practises.


Promoting Scouting

No matter what section you work in we offer outstanding opportunities for the young people we work with.

As a course, bring forward ideas on how we can promote ourselves using experiences from Camps and other residential trips.


Remember………….

People who are not given opportunity to Evaluate, don’t feel heard, if they don’t feel heard they won’t feel valued and if they don’t feel valued they will leave!


A request…

you.
