10 best platforms to find free datasetsAparna Sharma
If “the data is the new oil” then there is a lot of free oil just waiting to be used. And you can do some pretty interesting things with that data, like finding the answer to the question: Is Buffalo, New York really that cold in the winter?
There is plenty of free data out there, ready to be used for school projects, market research, or just for fun. Before you go crazy, however, you should be aware of the quality of the data you find. Here are some great sources of free data and some ways to determine their quality.
All of these dataset sources have strengths, weaknesses, and specialties. All in all, these are great pieces of equipment and you can spend a lot of your time digging rabbit holes.
But if you want to stay focused and find what you need, it’s important to understand the nuances of each source and use their strengths to your advantage.

Refreshing Evaluation in Support of the Social Movements RevivalInnovation Network
There is a growing social consciousness in America and a revival of using social movements as a vehicle for social change—with increasing nonprofit involvement and philanthropic funding support. Since the mid-2000’s there have been several notable movements that have taken hold of the public consciousness: the immigration reform movement and DREAMers, The Occupy Movement, Gay Marriage, climate change movement, Black Lives Matter, and a nascent, potential movement developing in protest of the Trump Administration. While evaluating movements has some parallels to established evaluation practice, it also represents some thorny challenges. In a session presented at the American Evaluation Association Conference on November 10, 2017, we explore and share what we are learning about evaluating social movements, including: what we know about social movements, their components, characteristics, and types; what aspects of social movements are ripe for evaluation; and what existing evaluation approaches are well suited to evaluating social movements.
Innovation Network's Veena Pankaj and ORS Impact's Mel Howlett share dataviz products that can be used throughout the evaluation lifecycle, including theory of change, social network analysis, data placemat, strategic debrief deck, H-form, visual report deck, visual executive summary, and timeline.

During the 2015 American Evaluation Association's Annual Conference in Chicago, Katherine Haugh and Deborah Grodzicki conducted a real time data mini-study to see which evaluation approaches evaluators at #eval15 use most frequently in their work. Basing their mini-study off of Marvin C. Alkin's "Evaluation Roots: A Wider Perspective of Theorists’ Views and Influences," they asked evaluators to vote for the top two approaches they used most often. This handout accompanied the real time data mini-study to provide more information about the formation of the evaluation theory tree, it's three branches, and definitions of the evaluation approaches associated with each branch.
Putting Data in Context: Timelining for Evaluators (HANDOUT)Innovation Network
Creating a timeline is a method for picturing or seeing events as they take place over time. The full PowerPoint slides of this presentation are also available in SlideShare. Search for the title "Putting Data in Context: Timelining for Evaluators".
[Link: http://www.slideshare.net/InnoNet_Eval/putting-data-in-context-timelining-for-evaluators ]
Creating a timeline is a method for picturing or seeing events as they take place over time. By documenting major occurrences in chronological order, evaluators are able to identify patterns, themes, or trends that they may not have seen otherwise. A timeline allows evaluators to “zoom out” and look at the broader landscape, so that they are better positioned to think through and understand the context in which events occur. Having a timeline is especially useful for complex, multi-year evaluation projects with several threads of evaluation, where documenting the process is just as important as measuring the outcome itself. Creating a timeline has three key components: planning, populating, and revising. This presentation shows how to incorporate a timeline into a report, how to use a timeline to track progress internally, and how to utilize data visualization principles to create a visual timeline.
Highlights of this presentation are also available in our handout titled "Putting Data in Context: Timelining for Evaluators (HANDOUT)".

Data Placemats: Construction and Practical Design TipsInnovation Network
Increasing stakeholder involvement throughout the evaluation lifecycle, not only enhances stakeholder buy-in to the final evaluation results, but it also ensures that the evaluator is taking into consideration multiple viewpoints to be able to provide a more comprehensive picture of a program or initiative. Data placemats, a data viz technique to improve stakeholder understanding of data, can be used to communicate preliminary evaluation results during the analysis phase of the evaluation life cycle. When done correctly, it offers stakeholders an opportunity to form their own judgments about the data and weigh in prior to the final report. In this session, the presenter will review the concept of data placemats, focusing specifically on the nuts and bolts of constructing a data placemat.
Real Time Evaluation: Tips, Tools, and Tricks of the TradeInnovation Network
How can an evaluator meaningfully convey findings to stakeholders based on data collected that same day? How can real time evaluation really be done in real time? This Ignite talk is based on Innovation Network’s experiences with facilitating real time evaluation in health policy settings, and will introduce AEA participants to three tools that can be used as part of any evaluator’s real time evaluation toolbox: surveys, H-forms, and timelines. Yuqi Wang from Innovation Network will provide an overview of each tool; show how these tools can aid data collection, analysis, and communication of findings in real time; and lessons learned from Innovation Network’s experiences with these three tools during the evaluation process.
Collecting and analyzing data in real time doesn't have to be as stressful or hard as it sounds, especially if you want to collect real time data using surveys. There is a short way and a long way to collect real time survey data. The short way of collecting and analyzing survey data is to use software that has the capability of collecting and analyzing survey data when embedded into powerpoints or webinars. The long way is to use hard copies of surveys to collect data, and Excel to analyze. This document will show you step by step how to collect and analyze survey data the long way.
Make Your Data Count: New, Visual Approaches to Evaluation Reporting Innovation Network
Charts and graphs built on dataviz principles are transforming evaluation reporting and increasing the evaluator's communication power. At YNPNdc's 2015 Annual Conference in Washington DC, Johanna Morariu and Katherine Haugh will provide principles and case studies of new, visual approaches to evaluation reporting. The session will provide examples, such as incorporating a wealth of visuals in text reports, using large format hand-outs to emphasize findings, and designing slide reports.
Success and Failure in the Evaluation Process
What do the terms “success” and “failure” really mean in the philanthropic world? Funders have taken different approaches to learning from initiatives that haven’t gone quite as they had hoped. Some funders want to learn from their mistakes, some provide technical assistance to lagging grantees, and some want to focus their light on “bright spots” and grantee successes. In this session, Kat Athanasiades from Innovation Network will discuss how and when her organization uses grant reports in evaluation; how and why getting good evaluation data from grant reports is difficult; and potential ways to make it easier for grantees to report on failure in a way that could be useful to evaluators.
Session participants will:
•Know how funders can embed “failure reporting” into grant reports in ways that are useful to evaluators.
•Learn ways a foundation can combat some of the "structural" impediments, e.g., trust and communication, that may prevent proper reporting on failure.
•Gain ideas from fellow participants on how to understand and appreciate grantmaking "failures" as well as successes.
Since its inception in 2000, the Missouri Foundation for Health (MFH) has invested in policy change in Missouri. Recognizing a dearth of organizations with the capacity to advocate for Missouri health consumers, MFH broadened its grantmaking vision to building a field of consumer health advocates. Using the Framework for Evaluating Advocacy Field Building, Innovation Network and the Center for Evaluation Innovation are currently gauging how MFH shapes this field through its grantmaking. This presentation will focus on evaluating two dimensions of the Framework of this field: Adaptive Capacity and Skills & Resources. A discussion of data collection activities will give the audience ideas about how to evaluate these dimensions, lessons learned from the process, and what has been revealed through the evaluation about Skills & Resources and Adaptive Capacity in a field.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms.

Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
