Hi everyone,
Just a few quick updates this Monday about Program Evaluation & Design!
- *New blog released: "Drafting a strategy plan with the community"* is
a new blog written by User:Barcelona from Amical. Read how Amical is
working with the community to develop their strategic plan through logic
model use.

[interested in sharing your evaluation story? Contact me!]
- *Evaluation capacity survey released this past week* and has been sent
to over 100 program leaders throughout the Wikimedia community. This
survey, which ends next Monday, will help the PE&D team learn more about
what type of support you need to proceed with evaluation. We can't wait to
share the results and see where the movement is at regarding evaluation.
- *Facebook group for Program Evaluation launched* *last week*. Over 60
community members are on the group. We know not all of you are on Facebook,
but, please join us if you are.

- *Share your WikiMetrics experience with us* by posting on the meta
page. And join the discussion here:

- *Have a question about Program Evaluation? As on our meta forum.* Stop
by and see what others are talking about, and ask your own questions here:

I hope your week is off to a great start, happy evaluating!

Hi everyone,
*It was great meeting and seeing so many of you in Hong Kong.* We hope you
made it home safely and had a great and inspiring time at Wikimania, we
know we did. We can't wait to have more concrete events and activities at
Wikimania 2014, and of course, we will keep you posted on opportunities.
I wanted to send a brief reminder about *Wikimetrics*. We would love your
feedback about it. You can find the training module here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Meta:Training/Wiki_Metrics
Jaime worked hard to create this great module, and it will show you the
easy basics on how to get started. Then you can be free to play and engage
with it.
Please post your feedback on the talk page here:
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Program_Evaluation_and_Design/Resources/Wiki…
And, if you find a bug, you can post it on Bugzilla[1] and if you don't
want to worry about Bugzilla, just email me. All feedback will be shared
with WMF analytics.
*This is a SOFT LAUNCH*. That means there will be bugs, issues, and it's
not perfect. But, we can't wait for you to play with it. Please experiment
and make sure,* if you do intend on using Wikimetrics to evaluate an
upcoming event you have, you use the permission forms for your event
participants.*[2]
*Also, please share Google Hangout ideas with us*. We're going to have our
next Google Hangout at the beginning of September, and IRC meeting around
the same time (details soon) so please share ideas here:

I'm looking to have program leaders like yourselves share successes,
challenges and stories about PE&D for the WMF blog. Please contact me - I'd
love to hear from you.
In Wikilove,
-Sarah
