We learn about one of the most important aspects of program evaluation – the creation of a logic model or theory of action for a program. Program logic models typically include a graphic representation of the inputs, processes, and outcomes involved in the program. Logic models help us clarify the relationship between these parts and why we think that these particular inputs and processes will produce the outcomes we expect. We also learn how to choose the appropriate methods for program evaluation, including quantitative and qualitative designs.
DIRECTIONS FOR 1 PAGE ESSAY
Part 1: Conduct an internet search to find and review two different logic models, identify the elements of the logic model and how they differ.
Part 2: How can logic models support your evaluation work in the field of non profit organizations who help children with developmental delays by providing intervention services? What circumstances would benefit from the use of logic models? How could you employ and/or apply them in your work or field of study?
