Create survey for collecting information for eventual assessment

[iamciera]

About

The first step of our outline for this project (outlined here) is to begin a pilot program. The pilot program will include visiting local labs (UC Berkeley, Stanford, LBL, UC Davis, UCSF) for the goal of: gathering information on motivations on why they need reproducibility ambassadors, receptiveness of program, and gain a general understanding of how local labs are approaching computational reproducibility.

We need a survey (maybe interview questions?) for collecting information.

Ideas Mentioned

• Possibly a checklist (from BIDs previous book)

• Less on how we are going to achieve solution—more on how we can move forward, what labs are actually doing—need to emphasize the “help us learn!” part

• Maybe also ask them how to advertise
  e.g., “If you saw an ad for this, what would make you sign up for it?”

• Any other ideas ??

Date Needed

Can one or two people assign themselves to this task? We just need a basic draft and we will discuss as a group at the next Reproducibility Working Group Meeting.

Content-wise, we probably want the workflow narrative, pain points, key benefits, key tools sections.

The workflow narrative is too long and we'll want to distill it into some questions where they can just check boxes. Like, "How many people does your lab workflow include? Do you use version control? Which programming languages do you use?"
