  4. Why do we have DANRIS-X? • Eliminate duplicative effort; link current systems • Provide accountability to stakeholders (local, county, state, and federal governments and the general public) • Document programmatic outcomes/impacts more fully • Document that all CE programs comply with USDA non-discrimination policy

  10. How Advisors can use DANRIS-X data • Program Development • Captures logic model information: need, participation, activities, outputs, outcomes • Accountability • Document providing goods/services/results and compliance with non-discrimination policy • Merit and Promotion process (Optional) • Use the Annual Evaluation Retrieval • Record information for Program Review Dossier • In the future • Network using the database search

  11. Academic Annual Evaluation Retrievals • Data retrieved from DANRIS-X Plan & Report • 2 Retrievals: Parts of Sections A & B and Section C • Available as Word document to download • Access on the Program Review website or in the DANRIS-X application • Upload to on-line Program Review web site

  15. Advisor Annual Plan • County FTE allocation • ANR Issue/Knowledge Area FTE • Projects/Programs • Situation Statements • Clientele • Commodities • Methods • Anticipated Outcomes • Multi-state Activities

  16. Advisor Annual Report Projects/Programs: • Activities • Actual Outcomes • Publications • Grant Support • Multi state Activities Individual Information (optional): • University/Public Service • Professional Competence • Annual Evaluation Narratives

  17. Emphases on Results • Quantification of activities/products – Outputs • Quantification of accomplishments – Outcomes • Documentation of longer-term effects -Impacts

  18. Outputs:What did you deliver? • Direct Extension Methods • Classes, Workshops, Field Days… • Indirect Extension Methods • Newsletter, Websites, Radio Programs… • Research and Creative Activity Methods • Basic/Applied Research, Videos, Curricula… • Publications

  19. Outcomes: How was the group/area affected? • Learning Outcomes ~short-term changes • Knowledge • Attitude • Skill • Action Outcomes ~ medium-term changes • Behavior/Practice • Condition Outcomes (Impacts) ~ long-term changes • Social/Health • Economic • Environmental

  20. Steps for Defining an Outcome • What? • Who? • Quantification?

  21. KnowledgeOutcome: • 1388 child care staff and parents of preschool children gained knowledge on packing safe and healthy brown bag lunches for preschool children

  22. Behavior Outcome: • 175 rice farmers and pest control advisers developed weed management programs that rotate modes of action on at least 50% of the total acreage to minimize herbicide resistance development.

  23. Economic Outcome/Impact: • Pistachio owner/operators, with orchards covering 50,000 acres, have begun to utilize mechanical pruning instead of labor-based cultural practices, which reduced their management costs from $200 per acre to about $50.

  24. Program Action: Logic Model Outcomes Activities/ Outputs Knowledge & Behavior Situation Inputs Impacts Plan Situation Statement: Identify Problem or Need Report Grants: Invest Staff, Volunteers, Money, Materials Report Activities & Publications: Deliver Products or Services Report Outcomes: Change in Program Participants Report Outcomes: Change to Population or Area

  25. Next Steps • Form a DANRIS-X advisory committee • Get feedback from advisors, specialists and administrators through survey and/or focus groups • Consider feedback and administrative and programmatic needs to determine changes/enhancements • Work on a “datamart” query system for all users to retrieve information in real time • Ability to search system
