Theory of Change Model & Logic Model
Students are expected to create both a Theory of Change Logic Model and a Program Logic Model. Utilizing information gathered from Assignments 1 & 2, students should use "knowledge" to produce assumptions, which will form the foundation of the logic model. Students should be sure to include key elements including resources, activities, outputs, short- and long-term outcomes, and impact. Describe the steps you took to create your logic model, how you considered available resources in your plan, and how you will measure activities to generate outcome data. This assignment should include both a narrative explanation of your programmatic elements in addition to a visual depiction of your logic model (i.e., chart). *Hand in your assignment as a PDF or Word document.
Student produces both a Theory of Change Logic Model and a Program Logic Model including both a narrative explanation of programmatic elements (key components) in addition to a visual depiction of logic model (i.e., chart)
Proficient
Visual and narrative presentation of both logic models reflects clear understanding of the purpose and necessary components of the logic model
Competent
Both logic models are included with visual and narrative presentations; however, lack sufficient detail to demonstrate an understanding of necessary components
Novice
Student does not include both types of logic model and/or includes only a visual diagram without a supporting narrative explanation of logic model(s)
Student effectively describes the steps taken to create the logic model and demonstrates a thoughtful consideration of available resources in the development of the plan
view longer description
The steps taken to create the logic model are described in detail and includes a thoughtful consideration of available resources throughout the development of the plan
Competent
Some mention is made of the process of creating the logic model without much detail and/or the direct link between resources and programmatic capabilities is not made clear
Novice
Paper does not provide information relative to the process of creating the logic model and does not mention resources
Well-written and follows APA guidelines as set forth in the 6th edition APA manual. Must include title page, abstract, citations throughout, reference page, and a maximum of two quotations (paraphrasing / citations are suggested instead of direct quotations).
