A practical approach to improving your evidence baseSession is mainly aimed at small third sector organisations
with no budget to commission research. Questions to consider:
Is research possible/cost effective? What approach is right for you?
Quantitative v qualitative. “Taking Account” as example http://www.cvsectorforum.org.uk/takingaccount
Local multiplier (LM3). “Eleven Plus to one” as example http://www.brighton.ac.uk/cupp/resources/11plus.htm
Monitoring and evaluation – a day to day approach to building your capacity which we will explore
Start with end in mind – who needs to know what?
Cupp helpdesk offers a free service to help you scope your research – contact Polly [email protected]

Dissemination – begin with the end in mind Once you have your information what do you
do with it? Who do you want to inform? How do you build interest from those you
want to influence/inform Who needs to know? What is your relationship? What is your link with ‘strategic’ organisations? How can you use existing networks?

Monitoring and Evaluation Should be
Specific Measurable Achievable Realistic Timed Clear

Monitoring Monitoring is the gathering and recording of
information about an intervention, programme or system. It can be numerical, e.g. people taking a programme of learning, or non-numerical, e.g. record of what was done in a particular meeting
(adapted. FESC, 1980)

Evaluation Evaluation is a process of collecting and
communicating information and evidence for the purpose of informing judgement and ascribing value to a particular intervention or programme. It must be accurate, relevant, fair, useful and credible. Where evaluation becomes or is seen as an end in itself and is not clearly related to action already undertaken, envisaged or planned, it is understandable that its value should be challenged (FESC, 1980)

Take 5 minutes Do you currently monitor your activity and
impact?
Do you currently evaluate your activity and impact?
What are the barriers to you conducting evaluation?

Issues raised & Why Evaluate?
![Page 9: Developing a strategic evidence base and using existing knowledge Jennifer Colwell & Dave Wolff CUPP, University of Brighton](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551bc06e550346be588b4a25/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
What to include Who do you want to inform?
What values do you hold ?
What are your objectives and targets?
What monitoring data can you gather?

System of Evaluation
![Page 11: Developing a strategic evidence base and using existing knowledge Jennifer Colwell & Dave Wolff CUPP, University of Brighton](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062511/551bc06e550346be588b4a25/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Take 5 minutes Which of the processes of evaluation do you
currently undertake?
What could you add to your current systems to increase the monitoring and evaluation you do?
