Computer History Museum

The Computer History Museum will improve the design and outcomes of its programs by developing an institution-wide approach to evaluation. Museum staff will receive training in evaluation tools and techniques. Additional project activities include developing a museum-wide evaluation rubric along with metrics and a dashboard to measure outcomes and impact. The structure of the project is intended to help break down existing departmental barriers and to create shared cross-institutional evaluation of both digital and in-person programs. The project will result in a holistic evaluation framework that integrates impact, assessment, and learning strategies that will increase staff’s ability to assess museum offerings across virtual and onsite platforms for planning, decision-making, and impact.
