*Hello! Bonjour! Hallo! مرحبا! Hola! Dobrý den! Hei! नमस्कार! 안녕하세요! Olá! Здравствуйте!* Welcome to the Program Evaluation & Design (PE&D) announcement list! This announcement list will provide weekly news about program evaluation processes, resources, media, and events around the world. The past two weeks have been busy weeks for us on the PE&D team, hence the size of this announcement! - It has been over two weeks since our first *Program Evaluation & Design Workshop* in Budapest. Read more about the event on our blog<http://blog.wikimedia.org/2013/07/11/finding-out-what-works-first-w… . - *PE&D has a home on meta-wiki*. Here<https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Programs>you will find: - *News and updates* about PE&D, including future online and in-person events. - The *Share Space*, which was developed originally for the Budapest workshop and will continue to serve as the main space for Wikimedia community members to share examples of their programs, find logic model examples, and ask questions in our peer-to-peer supported forum. - A *resources* page that features a glossary (please help translate it!), presentations by PE&D staff and community members that you can reuse and remix, all the details about logic models, and a resource list that you can add to. - We also have an *FAQ* where people can find answers to general questions about why we're doing PE&D, who the team is, and more. Please remember that the PE&D portal is a work in progress. This summer we will launch The Workshop, in partnership with the Learning & Evaluation team. It will be the "one stop shop" for all things evaluation! A few news updates... - *UserMetrics API * - Has been renamed *Wikimetrics* - And if all goes well it will be ready for the community to use in early August. - We have been working closely with legal about what information can be collected when gathering participant information at events. We are close to having some great (seriously!) news for you about that. - *Monthly Google Hangout for PE&D* - *Please take this survey <http://www.doodle.com/rivr3t4t8wen7cvw>*by Wednesday, July 17 * *with what days work for you. - Let us know what day of the week works best for a Google Hangout so we can share work we are doing around the world & ask questions about PE&D. These would be held on the third week of every month. - *Monthly Office Hours on IRC* - *Please take this survey <http://www.doodle.com/nvwv3ecmxs3stmsm>*by Wednesday July 17 with what day/time works best for you. - Let us know what day of the week and what times possibly work best for you for the PE&D team to hold a monthly IRC Office Hours. We know we can't reach everyone around the world at one reasonable time, so we hope having both an IRC and Hangout option will allow someone, someplace, to meet up from afar. Any questions or if you have a story to share about program evaluation, please email me.
