Impact Statement Guildelines Impact Reporting Guidelines Use this format to write impact statements about research, teaching and extension accomplishments. Include success stories from completed projects and current projects with significant results to date. Copy your Department Head. Text will be revised to provide a consistent format and will be submitted to the original author for review before posting. Write a brief statement about the problem or opportunity your work addresses.
Some methodology is okay, but keep it short and non-technical.
Include time frame. Include extension activities and work by other agencies that enhances impact. Emphasize team efforts when appropriate. Impact is not just the development of new information or technology, but the actual benefit realized from use of that technology or information. Include economic benefits or potential benefits.
