title: An integrated approach to evaluation: A participatory model for reflection, evaluation, analysis and documentation (the 'READ' model) in community arts creator: Barkley, Ellise Jane-Ann subject: community arts subject: evaluation subject: cultural value subject: community arts and cultural development subject: participatory evaluation subject: READ model subject: Nuclear Futures subject: community arts evaluation subject: program evaluation subject: arts management abstract: The research focuses on the development and critical review of the READ model, a dynamic and rigorous model for evaluation of community arts. The model's innovation lies in the integration of four key appraisal and learning strategies- Reflection, Evaluation, Analysis and Documentation (READ) - to cater for the multi-faceted demands of creative community partnership initiatives. Positioned within the contemporary debate on cultural value and impact measurement, the research contributes to the discourse on effective community arts evaluation and offers an integrated, stakeholder-oriented model of relevance to the Creative Industries, and the fields of evaluation, cultural development, project management and sustainability. publisher: Queensland University of Technology date: 2016 type: Thesis format: application/pdf relation: https://eprints.qut.edu.au/97728/3/Ellise%20Barkley%20Thesis.pdf rights: free_to_read format: application/pdf relation: https://eprints.qut.edu.au/97728/2/Ellise_Barkley_Portfolio_Document.pdf bibliographicCitation: Barkley, Ellise Jane-Ann (2016) An integrated approach to evaluation: A participatory model for reflection, evaluation, analysis and documentation (the 'READ' model) in community arts.
