*_ESIP Evaluation Workshop Project Requests_*


The Federation of Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP Federation) 
is organizing a hands-on
workshop on Earth Science project/program evaluation in Madison, 
Wisconsin on July 17^th , the first
day of the ESIP summer meeting 
(http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Summer_2012_Meeting). The workshop
will be taught by two evaluation professionals -- Joshua Joseph 
(Partnership for Public Service) and Kseniya
Temnenko (Global Environmental Facility) and is intended for applied 
scientists, data providers and
project/program managers. The main goals of the workshop are 1) Teach 
skills on evaluating YOUR Earth
science data/applications project and 2) Develop a community of practice 
for Earth Science evaluation. ESIP is
  seeking a list of current or past Earth Science projects to feature as 
'Case Studies' for the event. The chosen
project(s) will be discussed throughout the workshop as attendees learn 
the various steps and questions key
for developing a project evaluation framework. Good candidates are 
current or past applications or data management
Earth Science projects that 1) have clearly defined goals as to the 
value added/benefit to a decision making activity for a
specified end-user entity or organization and 2) The project has not yet 
evaluated its success or is a completed project
that did not provide this analysis.Ideally, the project lead/PI or 
someone with in depth knowledge of the project
would also attend the workshop in person, but this is not required. For 
questions or to send your suggestions
