Operational Plan for HMIS Rollout to be Read in Conjunction with the MoH&SW Document of October 2007
The MoH&SW, with a consortium of partners, in October 2007, developed a Proposal to Strengthen the HMIS in Tanzania. This document builds on that proposal to develop a budgeted 6âmonth plan to kickâstart implementation of the Revised MTUHA in one region and at national level, to develop a replicable model that can be scaled up to other regions as additional funds become available. The overall HMIS revision process will ensure that, within a period of five years the HMIS will be functional in all 21 regions of the country, in a phased manner Six months intensive systems and database development in Mtwara region Eighteen months implementation in one region in each of the six zones Within 5 years, National rollout to every region The initial six months implementation process, described in depth in this document, will use action research and participatory development methodology that will integrate the six work packages in the HMIS document, in line with the HSSP III proposals for strengthening M&E. A number of dedicated teams will roll out the HMIS, develop a toolkit for implementation in other regions and produce a modern web based data warehouse. The project logframe aims to provide quality routine data for monitoring MDGs and the NHSSPIII by producing five outputs â HMIS revision, HMIS implementation, Capacity development, the DHIS software and action research. Terms of reference are developed for each of the HMIS teams, based on the activities in the logframe â Indicator and dataset revision, HMIS design, Database development and training team. An actionâbased budget of US1,25 million for the first year, including the rollout activities, the development of training material, adaptation of software etc. The other six regions will cost 1,05million for first year; all regions will reduce to 300,000 in the third year. National level costs will reduce from 1,2 million for the first year, including the rollout activities, the development of training material, adaptation of software et
The necessities for building a model to evaluate Business Intelligence projects- Literature Review
In recent years Business Intelligence (BI) systems have consistently been
rated as one of the highest priorities of Information Systems (IS) and business
leaders. BI allows firms to apply information for supporting their processes
and decisions by combining its capabilities in both of organizational and
technical issues. Many of companies are being spent a significant portion of
its IT budgets on business intelligence and related technology. Evaluation of
BI readiness is vital because it serves two important goals. First, it shows
gaps areas where company is not ready to proceed with its BI efforts. By
identifying BI readiness gaps, we can avoid wasting time and resources. Second,
the evaluation guides us what we need to close the gaps and implement BI with a
high probability of success. This paper proposes to present an overview of BI
and necessities for evaluation of readiness. Key words: Business intelligence,

Methods and models of next generation technology enhanced learning - White Paper
Our understanding of learning with technology is increasingly lagging behind technological advancements, such that it is no longer possible to fully understand learning with technologies without bringing together evidence from practice-based experiences and theoretical insight to inform research, design, policy and practice. Furthermore, whilst practical experiences and theoretical insights make significant contributions towards understanding learning with new technologies, the dynamic nature of learner practices and study contexts make it difficult to predict future requirements in terms of methods and models for next generation technology enhanced learning.
We therefore require formal and comprehensive methods and models of learning with technology that accommodate theory and practice whilst allowing us to anticipate methodological innovations that capture future transitions and changes in learner practices and study contexts, in order to inform research, design, policy and practice.
Workshop participants represented different communities of interest including research, design, evaluation and assessment. The overall objective was to anticipate methodological innovations in technology enhanced learning research and design over the next 5/10 years
Global Innovations in Measurement and Evaluation
We researched the latest developments in theory and practice in measurement and evaluation. And we found that new thinking, techniques, and technology are influencing and improving practice. This report highlights 8 developments that we think have the greatest potential to improve evaluation and programme design, and the careful collection and use of data. In it, we seek to inform and inspireâto celebrate what is possible, and encourage wider application of these ideas
