There's an interesting post called 'Why evaluation doesn't measure up'
on the Museums Association site
http://www.museumsassociation.org/museums-journal/comment/01062012-why-evaluation-doesnt-measure-up
or http://bit.ly/L9FlQz where they say:
"No one seems to have done the sums, but UK museums probably spend
millions on evaluation each year. Given that, it’s disappointing how
little impact evaluation appears to have, even within the institution
that commissioned it."
and:
"Summative evaluations are expected to achieve the impossible: to help
museums learn from failure, while proving the project met all its
objectives. Is it time to rethink how the sector approaches
evaluation?"
I'm curious to know what others think. Are they right? Or are they
missing something?
Cheers, Mia
