On this theme, has anyone else seen Francois Matarasso’s speech for ACE on the important (but oft forgotten) distinctions between monitoring, evaluation, impact and advocacy?

 

Superb stuff, well worth a watch.

And just to chip in, John and I are going to run this session as a discussion rather than the usual presentations with Q&A structure.

 

We’re very keen to glean your thoughts on the issues and hear about your experiences so if you’re coming we’ll be encouraging you to be opinionated!

 

Hope to see some of you there, Anra

Hello all – this is tomorrow, who’s going? Come and say hello if you’ll be there, I’ll be loitering around the learning seminars all day I think.

Looking forward to perhaps meeting you tomorrow,

John

 

 

Hi Gemmers,

 

Just a quick heads-up, if you’ve not already seen – Anra Kennedy from Culture 24 has put together a programme of learning presentations & discussion at the Museum & Heritage show this year;

 

There are some great sessions lined up, including on use of technology, Takeover Day, and learning through stories.

 

Also, Anra and I will be doing an early afternoon session on measuring impact of museum & heritage learning.

Come down if you can – it’s free, after all, and it should be a really interesting day!

 

Cheers all,

 

John
