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

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:
  • 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)
