Impact Evaluation at Evolving Education

At Evolving Education we believe in the importance of evaluating the real impact that our actions have on the educational community. 

We develop a broad range of awareness campaigns, whose impact is hard to measure, since they may lead to people’s actions a long time after our campaign triggered key questions and reflections about education. One example would be EE Webinars. 

On the other hand, we can look into our development programs. Particularly at The Learning Expedition, we ask participants to document one of their innovation projects, resulting from the program. A main objective of The Learning Expedition is to support education change-makers to develop an experimentation mindset to be able to try new things in their contexts.

The digital magazine Transformative Learning Journeys presents 20 projects from the participants of the 2023 edition. In addition to some testimonies of interviews after the program and the results of a final survey carried. You can access this impact report here:

This survey is a small part of the continuous improvement actions that we carry out at The Learning Expedition. For example, the program includes channels for continuous feedback and spaces for reflection and redesign of the program to adapt it to the needs of the participants. We also conduct individual interviews with a sample of participants to make improvements. All this makes possible the quality that is reflected in the following metrics.
