- Do we need to collect new or additional data?
- What does the data tell us?
- What does the data reveal about how well the current situation matches our desired outcomes?
4) Use of Results

- What changes will you make based on what you have found through data collection and analysis?
5) Documentation
- Capture project goals, results, and use of results.
- Documentation improves communication & understanding of our work.
- Projects “living in our head” can now be shared and showcased.
