Greetings,
(Please pardon any cross-posting)
The final in our series of the Evaluation Reports (beta), the report on the Wikipedia Education Program, is now available on meta:
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programs:Evaluation_portal/Library/WEPhttps://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programs:Evaluation_portal/Library/WLM
Highlights of the report include:
==Inputs==
The average Wikipedia Education Program reported cost a total of almost $8,000 USD in total, and $275 each week to implement. The average Wikipedia Education Program invests a total of $67 US and 3 hours into recruiting each new editor participant.
==Participation==
Program leaders reported participation rates ranging from 25 to 2,372, and programs lasted from two weeks to 21 months with an average of 37.5 weeks.
==Outputs==
For the seven reported Wikipedia Education Program implementations, almost 3,000 different Wikimedia pages were created or improved. The average Wikipedia Education Program produces about 120 pages of content each week. The average program participant adds just under half a page of content to Wikipedia and creates or improves six wiki pages each week.
==Outcomes==
Out of the 3,334 new editor participants in Wikipedia Education Program, 36 (1.2%) participants were "active" three months after the program ended; 33 (1.1%) were "active" six months after the programs ended.
Questions are welcome and encouraged on the talk page.
On behalf of the Program Evaluation team,
Jaime
Thanks for the links to the reports, Jaime.
For the overall WEP report (as opposed to the also-linked WLM report) - could you please spell out on the Wiki page exactly what programs you are talking about, and link each to their specific report? I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what is being reported as part of the WEP, what projects are affected, and which programs have more participants.
Thanks!

Dear Jamie,
Thanks for the report. As we are -WMAR- working on improving our Educational Program we find it very useful. However, as Anne said it would be great to know what it's exactly being reported in terms of programs in order to find out which indicator is associated to each program.
Thank you!! Hope to hear from you asap.

Hello Anne,
Thank you for your interest. I have posted your question and the following response on the report's talk page https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programs_talk:Evaluation_portal/Library/WEP
Please continue with any further comments and dialogue there.
Best regards,
Jaime

:Program leaders who self-reported were assured their data would be reported without their program name identifiers. With this low a report count, even without program names listed in line with the data, this is very difficult to do. The implementations reported here represent program activity in the Arab world program, Czech Republic, Mexico, Nepal, Quebec, and the US/Canada. The data reported at the bottom actually have unique "Report ID" numbers that can be matched across the last three tables so that you can actually regenerate the dataset missing only event names (See Appendix heading "More Data" for the complete input, output, and outcome data used in the report). Those data include the instructor classroom count, number of program weeks, and participant counts for each implementation reported. In the future we plan to ask program leaders what level of identifiability in this reporting they are comfortable with and include identifiers in cases in which reporters volunteer to share that information publicly. :However, as there is some expressed interest in possibly comparing programs, I must restate the need for caution, at this early stage in the reporting, with such small numbers of implementers reporting (less than 10% potentially), we are aware that the data do not represent all programming, and that the data are too variable to draw comparisons between programs statistically. Further, in the case where the count of classroom varies highly across implementations, aggregate reporting of more than one-hundred classrooms is not directly comparable to the reporting of a single classroom since summative statistics from an increased number of observations generates a ''regression to the mean'' and do not make for a one-to-one comparison. :These issues as well as any other comments and/or suggestions are welcome on this talk page.
