After submitting the form, organizations will also meet with APG staff to discuss their progress.
Global metrics overview - all programs
[edit]'We are trying to understand the overall outcomes of the work being funded across our grantees' programs. Please use the table below to let us know how your programs contributed to the Global Metrics. We understand not all Global Metrics will be relevant for all programs, so feel free to put "0" where necessary. For each program include the following table and
- Next to each required metric, list the outcome achieved for all of your programs included in your proposal.
- Where necessary, explain the context behind your outcome.
- In addition to the Global Metrics as measures of success for your programs, there is another table format in which you may report on any OTHER relevant measures of your programs success
For more information and a sample, see Global Metrics.

- Detailed & expanded version of these metrics available here
- Comment on bytes added: We haven't reported this metric due to several reasons:
- a) We don't really feel this metric is a good tool to evaluate the progress of a project.
- b) We cannot know which editions come from a project and which ones don't in a busy article or enviroment, since not everyone sign up for the wikiproject list. We could add all the bytes related to one topic or edited in an specific time slice, but it wouldn't be an appropiate picture of reality.
- c) We think it's impossible to count every byte equally. It's not the same when you add content, when you correct typos or when you edit wikidata.

Telling your program stories - all programs
[edit]Please tell the story of each of your programs included in your proposal. This is your chance to tell your story by using any additional metrics (beyond global metrics) that are relevant to your context, beyond the global metrics above. You should be reporting against the targets you set at the beginning of the year throughout the year. We have provided a template here below for you to report against your targets, but you are welcome to include this information in another way. Also, if you decided not to do a program that was included in your proposal or added a program not in the proposal, please explain this change. More resources for storytelling are at the end of this form. Here are some ways to tell your story.
- We encourage you to share your successes and failures and what you are learning. Please also share why are these successes, failures, or learnings are important in your context. Reference learning patterns or other documentation.
- Make clear connections between your offline activities and online results, as applicable. For example, explain how your education program activities is leading to quality content on Wikipedia.
- We encourage you to tell your story in different ways by using videos, sound files, images (photos and infographics, e.g.), compelling quotes, and by linking directly to work you produce. You may highlight outcomes, learning, or metrics this way.
- We encourage you to continue using dashboards, progress bars, and scorecards that you have used to illustrate your progress in the past, and to report consistently over time.
- You are welcome to use the table below to report on any metrics or measures relevant to your program. These may or may not include the global metrics you put in the overview section above. You can also share your progress in another way if you do not find a table like this useful.

5 museums or GLAMs using the Wikipedian in Residence model | 2014 |
|
WiR residence is being rethought among community members. Although some GLAMs are looking fwd to it, community members prefer a midterm collaboration rather than a formal real life commitment. We have detected that in some areas, like the Land of Valencia, the model is still attractive to both GLAM and community members and will go for it during 2016. | ||
10 commited libraries will test a "small sister" libraries project, where the experienced library will be helping new glamwiki librarians getting into wiki universe. | n/a | n/a | Program is ongoing, but unofficially. The reason is that it can't be formally implemented due to difficulties to establish legal responsabilities between local admins. Although it is happening as an informal network. |

Resources
[edit]Resources to plan for measurement
[edit]- Global metrics are an important starting point for grantees when it comes to measuring programmatic impact (Learning Patterns and Tutorial) but don’t stop there.
- Logic Models provide a framework for mapping your pathway to impact through the cause and effect chain from inputs to outputs to outcomes. Develop a logic model to map out your theory of change and determine the metrics and measures for your programs.
- Importantly, both qualitative and quantitative measures are important so consider both as you determine measures for your evaluation and be sure to ask the right questions to be sure to capture your program stories.
