Awesome Evaluative Album and Music Offers

How does evaluative inquiry contribute to your organizational learning? How do you practice evaluative inquiry to maximize individual and team learning? Offering you a way of thinking about and conducting evaluative inquiry in every kind of organization, Evaluative Inquiry for Learning in Organizations provides a data-based approach to organizational learning and change. By focusing on the use of evaluative inquiry processes within organizations rather than across large-scale, multisite programs, authors Hallie Preskill and Rosalie T. Torres link the theory and practice of individual, team, and organizational learning to the discipline of evaluation. The authors lay the foundation and context for evaluative inquiry by including:

- How organizations are changing.

- What it means to learn at the individual, team, and organizational levels.

- The four learning processes that facilitate evaluative inquiry.

Using an illustrative case, the authors guide you through the three phases of evaluative inquiry from focusing the inquiry to applying learning from the inquiry. Also included are interviews from four different organizations: Land O’Lakes, Colorado Department of Education, Ford Motor Company, and Presbyterian Hospital and Healthcare Services. These interviews highlight key elements that support evaluative inquiry for learning in organizations. This exciting volume concludes with additional considerations when practicing evaluative inquiry, including an exploration of the evaluator’s role and challenges to implementing evaluative inquiry in today’s organizations.

Written for evaluators, managers, consultants, and trainers, Evaluative Inquiry for Learning in Organizations shows you how to integrate evaluative inquiry into your organization’s work processes so that its members are better able to make their organizations successful.

Throughout our lives, we are faced with situations that require decisions. Sometimes the decision is easy, and sometimes we have to wrestle with hard choices. It may be as simple as knowing that you love red and hate purple, and, therefore, will buy the red sweater over the purple one. More commonly, however, these situations require complex thought processes that weigh many factors before making a final evaluation. By being aware of different techniques that can be employed to make decisions, we increase the likelihood of making rational decisions we can be happy with, rather than jumping to intuitive decisions that we soon regret.

You Be the Judge helps students master essential skills for decision making and evaluation. Complete lessons and reproducible worksheets introduce students to three types of decision making:

• criteria evaluations measure against a predetermined standard;
• value judgments employ moral training and personal values; and
• judicial decisions require students to weigh facts before making an evaluation.

Each unit helps build important evaluative skills students will use throughout their lives.
