Exercises: The evaluation done by the team itself

The diagram shows the work cycle of a community venture. Explain it in your own words: what is done in each phase and why the last arrow goes back to the first one. Then answer: who takes part in the external evaluation, marked with «?», and how is their view different from that of the internal evaluation?

The eco-brick cooperative wants to review its own work without waiting for someone from outside to point things out. Propose two measurable internal indicators (for example, pieces made per day, percentage of rejected pieces or liters of water per batch) and explain which aspect of the system each one would improve and how it would be measured.
