HNFE 2664 Module 6 Assessment Creating a Program Logic Model and Evaluation Plan Due 4/23 by 11:59 p.m. 100 Points Purpose of this activity This activity will allow you to practice using parts of the PRECEDE-PROCEED Planning Model to develop a theory of change (logic model) for a health promotion program along with an evaluation plan. In this activity, you will be analyzing a specific case study, and then using your answers from the case study analysis construct a logic model for your specific program. This assignment gives you an additional opportunity to practice using the PRECEDE - PROCEED model for health promotion planning. You will also be asked to synthesize your knowledge of health behavior theory to plan and evaluate a public health program. Overview of Assignment and Project Deliverable There are two parts to this assignment: Part I: Analyzing a case study Part II: Developing a logic model using the PRECEDE-PROCEED Planning Model for program Project Deliverables (what you will turn in at the end of the project): You will turn in the following work : Your case study analysis (Microsoft Word document). Upload your answers to the five questions that follow your chosen case study . Be sure to write what number Case Study you completed at the top of your Word document. Do not upload the document that you are reading right now! A high-resolution image of your case study’s logic model using the PRECEDE-PROCEED Planning Model. Assignment Grading Use this rubric to see how your deliverable will be graded Page 1 HNFE 2664 - Spring 2021 - MA5 (v10.19)
Part I: Case Study Analysis Choose ONE of the following case studies and answer the attached program planning and evaluation questions. Case Study #1: Rural Obesity Intervention Case Study #2: Urban Tuberculosis Intervention Case Study #3: Maternal/Child Health Intervention Case Study #4: HIV/AIDS Prevention Effort For Question 3: program components are also known as intervention strategies. These are the strategies, or components, of your intervention that address the problem you are trying to solve. For example, if I were creating an intervention to increase the number of self breast exams, one program component, or intervention strategy, would be to create a social marketing campaign to increase an individual's awareness of their risk for breast cancer. Although an interpersonal model of behavior change, this component would be at the individual level of the social-ecological model, seeing that it is targeting a person's attitudes. Part II: Drafting Your Logic Model or Program’s Theory of Change Why should you create a logic model depicting a program’s theory of change? There are good reasons for using some kind of logic model or conceptual framework for any intervention. It provides a structure within which to plan your work, so that you’re not simply grasping at straws. As a result, you’re more likely to develop a coherent plan that addresses the necessary issues. Most models give you either a guide or a foundation for critical analysis of the issues at hand. That doesn’t guarantee that your analysis will be complete or accurate, but it significantly increases the chances. ( Community Toolbox ) For this module assessment, you will use the PRECEDE-PROCEED Planning Model to create your logic model. Feel free to follow the example in the lecture videos (also located here ). What’s required to be included in my logic model? Your logic model should include the following pieces of information (CDC): Program inputs Program activities Program outputs Short-term outcomes Long-term, quality-of-life outcomes What tools can I use to create my logic model? There are a variety of free tools available that you can use to create a visually engaging logic model. LucidChart (the tool I used to create the PRECEDE-PROCEED diagrams on my lecture) Canva Creately Visme You can also edit a pre-designed PRECEDE-PROCEED template , located on creately. You will need to enter your email address to access the template, but you should be able to download an image of the filled-out template. Page 2 HNFE 2664 - Spring 2021 - MA5 (v10.19)
How do I turn in my logic model and my case study analysis? You will be turning in two documents into Canvas: 1) Your case study analysis; and, 2) your logic model. Download a high-quality image of your logic model (PDF, JPG, PNG will work), and upload this image to Canvas. Be sure that you can read your text! Upload your case study analysis as a Microsoft Word document. How will my logic model be graded? Please see the following rubric for this module assessment. Module Assessment #5 Rubric Criteria Exceeds the standard (A) Meets the standard (B) Approaches the standard (C) Does not meet the standard (D-F) Logic Model (80 points) Required components (40 points) All required components (inputs, activities, outputs, short-term and distal outcomes) are included. Other program components (like potential moderators, health behavior theory constructs) are included. All required components (inputs, activities, outputs, short-term and distal outcomes) are included. Most required components (inputs, activities, outputs, short-term and distal outcomes) are included. The model is missing most of the required components (inputs, activities, outputs, short-term and distal outcomes). Level of detail (40 points) The logic model is appropriate in its level of detail; it’s not too dense or overly general. It’s language and format is tailored for a specific audience. The logic model is appropriate in its level of detail; it’s not too dense or overly general. The logic model provides too much detail or is too broad for a reader to easily grasp the program design. The logic model provides too much detail or is too broad for a reader to easily grasp the program design. Much of the information provided is not relevant to the program. Case Study Analysis (20 points) Thoroughly answers the question 4 points for each question What you are writing about is clear and well-expressed, including specific examples to demonstrate what you learned. Well done! What you are writing about is clear and well-expressed; however, your answer provides general examples to demonstrate what you have learned. What you are writing about is clear. You answered the question Some support may be lacking, or your sentences may be a bit awkward. Overall, a decent job. You put thought into this, but there is no real evidence of learning. More specific information is needed or you need to follow the directions more closely. Page 3 HNFE 2664 - Spring 2021 - MA5 (v10.19)
