This Ignite presentation will use two canine competitions to explore the intersection of qualitative and quantitative methods. The dog show conformation ring appears to be an example of an event which is judged through a qualitative lens, while agility (a timed course with obstacles, such as jumps and tunnels) is judged quantitatively.

This presentation will use conformation and agility as an analogy for the overlapping of qualitative and quantitative approaches which appear in our diverse evaluation endeavours.
