Develop case study examples and guidelines
- Develop semantic form for entering case studies into the wiki
- Figure out how cases will contribute to final Forsys guidelines
Manage case study contributions
- Solicit case studies from the Forsys network
- Review and comment on case studies submitted
- Answer questions, resolve issues
Use of published literature
- Assuming institutionalization of the wiki and not of the Cost Action per se, it does not matter whether a forsys member has delivered a case or a case study. Of course it does for the record of the Action, so a separate tag “Forsys member” should do.
- This is a good point. The initial thinking is that these will be stored in different data structures: the wiki for forsys cases and a literature database (maybe Mendeley.com for the literature). However, somehow we would need to link from each to the guidelines they relate to.
- Investigate possible technologies for managing/sharing case study literature
Categorization and searching of cases
- The case study semantic form
- tags each case with the general Category:Case
- uses the other fields in the case form as tags/categorizies (e.g. Country, Decision phase)
- Cases can be searched/filtered using custom semantic queries or pre-build semantic query pages
Synthesis of cases
- Synthesis of the cases will focus on their recorded lessons, and how these lessons contribute to the overall FORSYS lessons/guidelines
Sharing results
- The CTSC is hosting all cases to the FORSYS wiki
- The CSTC has submitted a presentation proposal for the final FORSYS conference in April 2013
- The CSTC has also proposed a case synthesis journal article for the FORSYS conference issue of the Scandinavian Journal of Forest Research
- Other ideas???
DONE
After the Leuven 2011 meeting
- Synthesized Leuven discussion and updated Case Study Guidelines on the wiki
- Developed semantic wiki form for STSM Opportunities
At Leuven 2011 meeting
- Give case study introductory presentation
- Each STC member leads a subgroup on assigned task
- Develop & present a time line for the work on the case studies
- incl. meeting of the STC
- incl. clear division of responsibilities
Before the Leuven 2011 meeting
- Develop two (or more) documents:
- Case Study Notes by Research Phase: organize information already generated about the case study guidelines
- 2011-11_Leuven_Case_Study_Agenda
- Gather further information on case studies (STC sends request to country representatives)
- Existing forest DSS case studies
- Potential forest DSS case studies
- Other relevant literature (methods, theories, etc)
