Reflection Questions

​There is a default set of reflection questions applied to each new graph. To see those questions, go to an existing graph of the type you want to create (e.g., pie, bar, cumulative line), and click on Reflection Questions. The default reflection questions are all that most organizations need. Here is an example of default reflection questions for a bar chart:

1.  What are we seeing?

    • What pattern are we seeing in this distribution of activity?
    • Which areas show more activity? Less?

2.  What does it mean?

    • What may have contributed to this pattern?
    • What distribution of activities did the group intend, and how well did it meet it? 

3.  Implications for adjustment:

    • Given what we are learning, what adjustments should we make (if any)?  
    • What specifically should we do to distribute activities as intended? 
    • What challenges need to be addressed to make needed changes? How can meet them?​

If you need to add custom reflection questions, here are the instructions. Please be aware that the default questions will display along with any custom questions you add. Be sure to check out the existing default questions to make sure that you are not duplicating questions.

  1. ​Go to Administration Reflection Questions..
  2. Click New to create a new question.
  3. Enter the text you want to add.
  4. Select the Series Types (accomplishments, indicators, key events, etc.) associated with these questions.
  5. Select the Graph Types (pie, bar, cumulative line, etc.) where you want this new question to appear.
  6. Click Save.

Report Templates

​Report templates allow you to create one template that can be used multiple times to create the reports your organization needs. If you create a monthly report template, then you, or your site users, can use that as your starting point each month. To run a report your site users will enter the date range, update text sections as needed, and then create a ​report. Please see Report Templates for instructions on how to setup a report template.​
