Abstract:

As practitioners and teachers of statistical consulting and collaboration, how do we assess the effectiveness of ours and our students’ engagement on projects with domain experts? We propose that assessments of the effectiveness of statistical collaborations should be based on the four areas of attitude, skills, performance, and improvement. In this brief paper, we describe several ways for conducting assessments in these four areas and conclude with a call for the statistics and data science education community to build upon these ideas.
