Replying to @aeaweb
I learned how to engage in an eval/arts technique called photo elicitation from @and_implement. One component is to avoid interpreting the art yourself and that “the wisdom sits with the artist.” Basically, listen while you allow the *creator* of the art to interpret it. 🖼️🙌

Even if you can’t draw, you can use drawing as a data collection tool in your evaluation (see my attempt as a horse below 👇 as proof). Curious how? Learn about how we’ve done it here: bit.ly/3bkGSf2. #evaluation #drawing #datacollection

My word social media is humbling. 2 hours to upload a video because my phone settings changed, everything looked different, and I couldn’t find the right button. To whoever else is having a hard go of things today, you’re not alone!
