Let's Get Real

Welcome to Module 3 of our Guide to Democratic Empowerment!

In this module, we will guide you through the evaluation and processing of the coACTION Sensor results.

In this third step, you will analyse the results of the coACTION Sensor and gain an overview of the current state of democracy at your school – from the perspectives of the school management, teachers, children and parents.

Based on the results, you will set development goals for the ‘Year of Democracy’ and select the appropriate exercises and methods from the Treasury.

By completing this module, your school will

At the end of the evaluation phase, take some time to summarise how it went. These findings can be very useful for the rest of your ‘Year of Democracy’:

• How did colleagues react to the results of the Sensor?
• How were the project team’s suggestions received?
• How did the participation of colleagues work out?
• How satisfied are we with the offers and contributions?
• What else is needed?
• How did the collaboration with the school management work?
• Is more support needed in any areas?
• What are we grateful for?
• Other insights
• How do we as a project group feel about what has happened so far?
• What can we take away as good practice, what should be improved?
• Was it easy to agree on a development goal? Is it supported by everyone involved?

Congratulations!
