Evaluation: “Hör.Forscher!
Client: Netzwerk Junge Ohren and Foundation Zuhören
Period: School year 2022/2023
Hör.Forscher! is a joint programme of the Netzwerk Junge Ohren und Foundation Zuhören and the PwC Foundation. It is aimed at pupils of all school types in the age group 10 to 15. The young people are sensitised to sounds and noises in their environment and realise their own ideas artistically and medially. Michael Wimmer is in charge of evaluating the programme.
The programme year 2022/23 of Hör.Forscher! should serve to summarise the project results of four funding years, to analyse the potential and to announce perspectives for a continuation of the programme. On this basis, concrete suggestions for a continuation of the Hör.Forscher! programme are to be developed – on the one hand, in the continuation of the project work, the targeted processing of individual programme elements or the deepening of focus topics. At the same time, the programme partners see themselves as responsible for questioning the sustainability of the resources and networks that have been built up and for orienting them towards possible developments for further use.
The evaluation methodology is based on qualitative procedures: After data collection and analysis by interviews and workshops with the project operators and groups of actors involved on assessments and expectations, the results are presented in a follow-up report. In a final workshop with representatives of the commissioning institutions, future procedures will be specified and guidelines for action will be drawn up.
