Building Evaluation Capacity Through CLIPs: Communities of Learning, Inquiry, and Practice
This chapter focuses on a model for building evaluation capacity. The approach embeds evaluative thinking and practice into the work of higher education leaders, faculty, and staff who need evidence to guide their planning and decision making. Communities of Learning, Inquiry, and Practice (CLIPs) are a type of community of practice; they are informal, dynamic groups of faculty and staff who inquire and learn together about their professional practice and operate within a support structure specifically designed to fit the higher education context. This chapter describes two institutions in which the CLIPs model was implemented—a community college in the United States and a medical school in Canada. Based on the results from these case examples, seven guiding principles are proposed for implementing successful CLIPs. This model is adaptable to organizations beyond higher education.
