Writing a Meeting Evaluation


These are not meant to simply summarize what a speaker had to say. Instead, it is an opportunity for the Brother to assess the presented information (agree/disagree and why?). Constructive suggestions for improvements in the presentation or its contents are appropriate. And, the Brother should include examples of how they may apply the information in their Masonic journey. Most meeting evaluation reports are approximately 2-3 pages, submitted in Word or PDF format and accompanied by an Academy cover sheet.

Specific requirements:

Format:

1. Academy cover sheet

2. Paper:

Name/date of meeting
