Site Visits and Observations

Careful observation leads to more insightful evaluations.

LK Evaluation Consulting site visits and observations provide a direct, firsthand view of behavior, offering authentic insights into how people interact with your project in their natural environment. Site visits provide the opportunity to discover and immediately meet with people that you didn’t previously know were impacted by your project.

Individual Services

Ground-Level Insight Through Direct Observation

Our Site Visits and Observations service provides a powerful lens into how your program functions in real-world settings – essential information for comprehensive program and project evaluation or other situations where you need a holistic understanding of how your work impacts people. Using a structured yet flexible approach, we conduct observations that build trust and minimize the impact of our presence. As appropriate for the goals and desired outcomes of your project, while we are on site we may conduct confidential interviews or focus groups with your participants and other stakeholders. With deep expertise in interdisciplinary STEM and educational research, we bring a unique ability to identify and interpret complex dynamics.

Connecting Observation to Actionable Evaluation

Our site visits and observations service often complements other data gathering efforts, providing you contextual depth and a nuanced understanding. We document observations through a variety of methods depending upon the environment, and issues being explored. Data gathering methods we use include systematic document analysis, reflective field notes, audio or video recording. Our site visits and observations service’s findings provide one of the most authentic sources of stakeholder data that you can gather about your program.
