Behind Every Number is a Story

There are a lot of numbers produced in eXtension. I know that when I hear those numbers, I want to know things like “How is that number produced? What exactly is it measuring? What time period does that number reflect? Are there mitigating factors or assumptions that inform that value?” Behind every number is a story.

In this session I’ll demonstrate a new tool at http://data.extension.org for collectively exploring the data coming out of the www and create websites (and soon the AaE/Ask site) in eXtension. I'll cover the technical details of how the numbers are produced so that we have a common foundation to begin to explore the stories behind the data and go beyond ‘reports’ to tie our data together in ways we haven’t done before.

About the Extension Foundation

The Extension Foundation was formed in 2006 by Extension Directors and Administrators. Today, the Foundation partners with Cooperative Extension through liaison roles and a formal plan of work with the Extension Committee on Organization and Policy (ECOP) to increase system capacity while providing programmatic services, and helping Extension programs scale and investigate new methods and models for implementing programs. The Foundation provides professional development to Cooperative Extension professionals and offers exclusive services to its members. In 2020 and 2021, the Extension Foundation has awarded 85% of its direct funding back to the Cooperative Extension System, 100% of funds are used to support Cooperative Extension initiatives.
