Overview tab[edit]

Should be the first tab. OK OK

History of programs[edit]

Jaime, Edward:
on the original draft on office, we had set a section at the beginning to describe the program and its history. I think we could consider this first section for that. Also, with <div id=XX> we can call this section directly at any point, like at the beginning of «Highlights»
Thoughts? MCruz (WMF) (talk)

Maria - Hmm... I think having all the history on this page makes it a bit too long and it would be better within each program report. After the highlights tab, the second tab should be "Goals and Background" ("Data turnout" is confusing"), where we include response rates, and goals for the program, and then program history. - Thoughts Jaime?
OK OK We ended up splitting the history between the Program list and the Program Overview MCruz (WMF) (talk)

Wordsmith[edit]

Current name New name Applied?
Highlights * Program Overview [1]
* Program Outline		 OK OK
Data turnout * Limitations [2]
* Data Collection [3]
* Context (of the report) [4]
* Response Background / Context
* Response outline
* Response review		 OK OK
Make clear in the opening paragraph that it's data limitations.
Inputs Inputs OK OK
Outputs Outputs OK OK
Outcomes Outcomes OK OK
Key Takeaways * Key Findings [5]
* Conclusions and Recommendations
* Conclusions and key notes
* Key notes
* Overall Progress [6]
* Overall Findings [7]		 OK OK
The blurb needs to be «Key Findings and next steps», make it more of a call to action.
Appendix Appendix OK OK

Other ideas[edit]

  • Maybe a small icon next to name tab?
  • «Overview» and «Takeaways» seem to be popular concepts in reporting.
  • «Appendix» could be called «Dataset». Would this be accurate? MCruz (WMF) (talk)
  • «Overview» could also be called «Overview of Programs» or «Executive Summary». Or maybe make a new section called «Executive Summary»[8], that has similar information to the subtitle Data and Analysis that is currently under Overview, and some point about next steps in Evaluation capacity development.
  • Overview could have a section called «Background on Evaluation Initiative [4]»
