Begin to “notice things”—what stands out?
Highlight and name these things (“coding”)

the themes to such areas as:
• your WO project goals, objectives, and intended outcomes
• changes in institutional capacity to accomplish its mission
• how participants’ are affected by involvement in project activities (as related to institutional capacity)
Considering the Meaning Determine ways that the patterns and
themes can create a deeper understanding of the impact of your WO project
Decide what you want to share and how you want to recount the story
