Peer Review

• Since the peer reviewers will have access to full review presentations before May 7th 2012, you may assume they have reviewed the slides prior to the meeting and therefore the oral presentation should focus on key elements and communicate the most important points in the limited time provided.

• This gives projects the option of submitting additional information as ‘Supplementary Slides’ that will be reviewed but not orally presented.

• Please take time to understand the weight of each review criteria and prioritize your oral presentation accordingly.

• The peer reviewers may inquire about any slide in your presentation or about information in your project summary or backup materials.

• Please note: Any project advancements made after submitting your presentation may be described verbally.


Guidelines for time limits

Remember to carefully time your presentation:• Presenters will be allowed 15 - 45 minutes varying by project type:

• Presenters of EGS Demonstrations and NGDS projects will be given 45 minutes• 30 minutes MAXIMUM for the oral presentation • 15 minutes MINIMUM for Q&A

• Presenters of all other fully-reviewed projects will be given 30 minutes• 20 minutes MAXIMUM for the oral presentation • 10 minutes MINIMUM for Q&A

• Presenters of project overviews will be given 15 minutes for oral presentation• Q&A will be held at the end of the panel session

• Time limits will be strictly enforced.


Guidelines for number of slides

Remember to carefully time your presentation:

• Presentations should contain a maximum (excluding the title page) of:

– 20 presented slides for 30 minute presentations (EGS and NGDS projects)

– 15 presented slides for 20 minute presentations (all other fully reviewed projects)

– 12 presented slides for 15 minute presentations (overview projects)

• Evaluation and weighting criteria should be considered when planning and organizing your presentation.

Template Instructions


Template Explanation

You must include all mandatory template slides in your presentation.

• The template slides directly address the peer reviewers’ evaluation criteria.

– GTP recommends that you include at a minimum one slide to address each of the four evaluation criteria. However, you may devote more slides to each criteria, as you feel appropriate.

• Express metrics in terms of proposed activity, milestone and outcome.

• You can use tables, charts, illustrations or other communication devices instead of bullets on these slides. (For example: a budget table to address resources and productivity.) Video and animation files cannot be supported and should not be included in the oral presentation.

• Remember to demonstrate your project’s attributes – simply stating that your project has achieved high-quality accomplishments is insufficient. Specific results are required, including supporting data/information.

This slide is for reference only and is not to be included in the presentation


• Principal Investigators should keep in mind the peer review evaluation criteria and weights in the planning and preparation of their presentation.

• Reference the “2012 Peer Review Scoring Criteria and Rating Explanation Document.docx” for a description of each criterion and the rating standards being used.

Data Sharing

The world is saturated with early efforts. More productive science and engineering will only occur when research and engineering results can be shared and replicated. NSF data management guidelines move government researchers in that direction by requiring data management plans for funded government research. DOE’s Geothermal Technologies Program requires that all projects provide data to the DOE Geothermal Data Repository for linking to the National Geothermal Data System.

___________________________

• Describe the type of data that is being generated from your project and how it is being used and managed. Examples of data include: numerical data sets, reports, images, maps, etc.

• Describe your efforts-to-date to provide your project data to the “DOE Geothermal Data Repository” - currently under development by Boise State University. The DOE Geothermal Data Repository will be made public through the National Geothermal Data System, or retained in the DOE Geothermal Data Repository as business confidential, where applicable.
