SC Reports

Brief reports on the month's activity should be written by each chair 2 days before the SC meeting. At the meeting each chair will bring up any open issues that require discussion, but won't need to recount everything described below.

Analytics

Coordinator

  • Included a feed from the SC blog on the main page
  • We need lab notebook testers!
    • John and Vincent volunteered their students. Vincent needs better help documentation before he can roll it out.

Communications

News and highlights

  • SC blog feed now shows up on main page as does a feed of the most recent 5 new users.
  • "News and Highlights" section removed from main page. This makes for a more streamlined design and allows the SC blog to serve as the primary venue for news and announcements.

Outreach

  • OWW Survey:
    • At the end, we only have 26 entries ... not great
    • Find here a quick overview of the results
    • What did we learn ? Was it a waste of time ? Is it worth to advertise it more ?
    • What should be the next step ?
