Something else you may want to look at is the Visitor Studies Group
http://www.visitors.org.uk/ . They have some great reference material.

Subject: Evaluation
Hello Gem Listers!
I am currently supervising a Project Scotland volunteer (young person
on full time volunteering placement). I would like her to evaluate a new
family resource pack which we are developing together. We tend to rely
on written feedback forms, which are not always the most effective way
of evaluating informal activities. I would like her to design and
implement a qualitative form of evaluation eg observation, or
alternatively a child-friendly evaluation technique. The aims of doing
this? It would be good for her to understand the need for evaluation at
heritage sites,it would build her confidence, and it would look good on
her cv!
Now for the question - is anyone running an evaluation training course
in September or early October (the idea is to develop and trial the
resource in the school October holidays) or does anyone have any tips on
evaluation?
Regards
Evelyn
