Project description
I presented on how to make evaluations more meaningful using geographic data at the annual American Evaluation Association conference.
 
Approach
A co-presenter and I shared a simple approach to incorporating geographic data in evaluations, highlighting the benefits to evaluators and clients. We reviewed a beginner-friendly approach to mapping in Tableau, and showcased the value of heat mapping, location mapping, and pathway mapping. The presentation was well-attended, and we received an excellent response from the professional community.
 
Impact
  • Presented to fellow evaluators at the AEA annual conference
  • Showcased a hands-on method participants could apply with no prior experience
  • Fielded questions and engaged in a productive dialogue with the participants
