Hi,
 
I'm doing a project for a small local history museum looking at the evaluation of their primary education programme. I'm interested in what similar museums are currently doing in this area, particularly if there are any doing anything innovative in terms of methodology. 

What I'm after is a quick snapshot of what your museum carries out to evaluate your primary programme:
 
- When do you evaluate- every session, choose at random, only evaluate certain types of session, carry out annual checks?
 
- What do you evaluate- GLO's, enjoyment, teacher opinions, children's opinions, factual knowledge gained?
 
- How do you evaluate- questionnaires, interviews, observation, anything really unusual that gives good results?
 
- Who carries out this work?
 
I'm happy to combine responses in to a document for others interested in this topic. There is so much research out there and so many ways to do things it would be great to get a picture of what the reality on the ground is.
 
Thanks,
 
Vicky Johnston
