Grant Overview
Measuring Impact in Arts, Culture, History, and Humanities ## Evaluating the Success of Archival Research Fellowships ### Required Outcomes and Reporting Requirements The Fellowship for Archival Research on US History aims to support research on underrepresented and non-dominant craft histories in the US. As a measurement-focused overview, this page will delve into the required outcomes, KPIs, and reporting requirements for Arts, Culture, History, Music & Humanities applicants. To measure the success of their projects, fellows will need to track and report on their research progress, publication plans, and the impact of their work on the field. This includes providing regular updates on their archival research, sharing their findings with relevant stakeholders, and making their published work available to the public. The stipend awarded to Center for Craft Archive Fellows will be used to participate in a virtual program, undertake research at archives, and publish their findings. As such, fellows will be required to submit regular progress reports, detailing their research activities, challenges faced, and any changes to their project scope or timeline. The funder, a non-profit organization, will be looking for clear evidence of the fellow's progress, including the quality of their research, the depth of their analysis, and the relevance of their findings to the field of craft history. In terms of KPIs, fellows will be expected to demonstrate a strong understanding of the craft history landscape, identify and analyze underrepresented and non-dominant narratives, and produce high-quality research that contributes meaningfully to the field. The publication of their research findings is a critical component of the fellowship, and fellows will be required to provide evidence of their publication plans, including the title, publisher, and expected date of publication. When it comes to reporting requirements, fellows can expect to submit regular financial reports, detailing their use of the stipend, as well as narrative reports, outlining their research progress and challenges faced. The funder will provide guidance on the specific reporting requirements, including the frequency and format of the reports. One of the key challenges that fellows may face is ensuring that their research is accessible to a broad audience, beyond the academic community. To overcome this, fellows can leverage the virtual program component of the fellowship, which will provide opportunities for networking, knowledge-sharing, and collaboration with other researchers and practitioners in the field. By fostering a community of practice around craft history, the fellowship aims to amplify the impact of the research and promote a more nuanced understanding of US craft history. From a regulatory perspective, fellows will need to be aware of the relevant standards and licensing requirements that apply to their research, such as the use of archival materials and the publication of their findings. For example, the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) regulates the use of federal records, and fellows will need to comply with NARA's rules and guidelines when conducting research at federal archives. One verifiable delivery challenge that fellows may face is the limited availability of archival materials, particularly in cases where collections are not fully digitized or are restricted due to copyright or other constraints. To overcome this, fellows will need to plan carefully, leveraging available resources and seeking guidance from archivists and other experts as needed. In conclusion, the Fellowship for Archival Research on US History presents a unique opportunity for researchers to contribute to a more nuanced understanding of US craft history. By understanding the required outcomes, KPIs, and reporting requirements, Arts, Culture, History, Music & Humanities applicants can ensure that their projects are successful and meet the funder's expectations.
