    PROFESSOR FEEDBACK SO FIX LOGIC MODEL ACCORDINGLY AND DO THE ASSIGNMENT BELOW FOR THIS WEEKS DISCUSSION. IT IS DUE WEDNESDAY MORNING

    ThursdayMar 28 at 11:20pm

    Angela, what specifically do one individual or one group need that you could build a specifically-tailored program around? The practitioner level logic model is supposed to focus on one person, much like a single-case study. The program-level logic model develops a program with one type of client in mind, but for current and future clients.

This is a discussion post and does not need to be formatted as a paper

According to Dudley (2020), measurable outcomes (or objectives) can have three properties: performance, conditions, and criteria. Performance refers to the observable action taken in order to achieve the outcome, whereas conditions include the context surrounding the action (e.g., after, if, during). Finally, criteria refer to the quality of the performance (e.g., duration, frequency, degree of progress). These properties give the outcome sufficient detail in order to define the exact specifications for achievement. Each individual outcome must also connect up logically and work toward the overarching goal.

Last week, you sketched out the goal and outcomes of your proposed program. Now, in this Discussion, you use the lens of measurement to refine, elaborate, or clarify your drafted outcomes.

  • Review Chapter 7 of the course text for information about creating goals and objectives/outcomes. See the examples regarding the three properties of measurable objectives: performance, conditions, and criteria.
  • Refer to your program-level logic model from last week. Consider the overall aim/goal and outcomes for your proposed program.

BY DAY 3

  • Briefly describe the overarching aim/goal of your proposed program.
  • Select two outcomes from your program-level logic model and write them in a sentence format that includes performance, conditions, and criteria.
  • Explain how these outcomes would support the overarching aim/goal of the program.
