Hi. Does anyone have any experience of using online social networking / learning platforms (eg Blackboard, Elgg, Faceboook, Linkedin, Myspace, Moodle, Ning) for conducting evaluation projects? Or know of any books or articles on this subject? Or using specific online tools such as Surveymonkey for evaluations? For info: . This is the topic for my MBA dissertation . I am about to use one of the above in a pilot study . The work I do is mainly in the public and third (ie voluntary/community) sectors in Cumbria in the UK . The projects I evaluate are typically concerned with tackling inequality and disadvantage experienced by specific groups as a result of issues relating to age, disability, ethnicity, health, poverty, rurality, etc Many thanks Quentin _____ Quentin Merritt Wingspan Consulting Ltd 39 Wordsworth St, Keswick, Cumbria, CA12 4BZ Tel: 017687 72730.
