Arts-based methods facilitate engaging, wonderfully complex, and – we'll go ahead and say it – enjoyable ways for collaboration, data collection, and reflective practice. Much like an effective survey or compelling interview, arts-based methods demand solid theoretical grounding, practice, and more practice. Rooted in hands-on practice, this 6-week online introductory course provides working evaluators with 12 hours of fresh content, opportunities to explore 4 techniques (photography, poetry, collage & drawing), practical skills development, and a small/collaborative learning group. Participants will develop the confidence and knowledge to work through ethical considerations, choose between various approaches, and advocate for arts-based methods. This course will support evaluators in energizing their work, enhancing their qualitative capabilities through "creative interviewing," and exercising their imaginative abilities. No prior artistic training or background necessary.
