A neat tool for self-evaluation of Guiding knowledge is the "Rubric for Guider Evaluation" at the BC Council website - I just mentioned it on the National Link list as well.

"A rubric is an assessment tool. Assessment involves finding out where people are at a given moment in time. Before being able to make suggestions about areas upon which one might increase their knowledge, it is imperative to consider the individual’s developmental stage. Analytical rubrics (such as the one provided) enable the assessor(s) to easily ascertain the performance level on many criteria.

A RUBRIC
o Defines what is important
o Establishes a threshold of acceptable performance
o Allows the assessor(s) to distinguish between levels."





I'm off to co-facilitate a Beyond Stage 3 training session this weekend (in Alberta we call it Great Horned Owl).
