    03 / Monitoring impact

    What could we track next?

    Follow-up indicators that could help us understand how the programme translates into educational practice.

    Proposed follow-up framework
    Teachers’ knowledge and awarenessNo measurement data reported

    INDICATOR TO TRACKThe number of teachers able to explain, using examples, the relationship between climate impacts and cultural heritage conservation.

    PROPOSED METHODA short follow-up survey or interview could be used. To measure change, future programmes could include both baseline and end-of-programme assessments.

    Transferring the experience to classroom activitiesNo measurement data reported

    INDICATOR TO TRACKThe number of teachers addressing the relationship between cultural heritage and climate in their lessons after the programme, and the number of activities developed.

    PROPOSED METHODTeachers’ voluntary feedback could be reviewed alongside lesson plans, activity summaries or examples of student work.

    Reaching students and schoolsNo measurement data reported

    INDICATOR TO TRACKThe number of students and schools taking part in relevant activities, and the nature of the cultural heritage and climate work undertaken.

    PROPOSED METHODActivity records and teacher reports could be used. Student reach should be calculated without counting the same participant more than once.
