success ofthe program .● develop one smart H u m a n i t i e s

This is a group assignment, I was assigned to bullet 1 (first bullet) and bullet 8 (last bullet)

Developing and Focusing the Research Design- Address the following elements in this section and not who completed each of them:

● Choose one program (from the list in Part I) as the focus of the evaluation. Create a clear

description of the program; consider including elements such as length of program, eligibility

criteria, where it is located, what activities are included and who has responsibility for

oversight and delivery of it. If there are multiple components to the program, identify the

portion that you will be evaluating.

● Create a Logic Model that identifies the inputs/resources, activities, outputs, outcomes and

impact for this program. Use Figure 3.2 in the text as your guide.

From the Logic Model, choose one outcome to use as the measure to assess the success of

the program.

● Develop one SMART (see Chapter 7) program objective related to this outcome and identify

the type of objective (e.g., knowledge, affect, or behavior) that it is.

State the objective as a clear research question.

● Utilizing the resources available through the library website and/or a brief literature/online

search, identify a scale/instrument that could be used to measure the outcome. Attach the

instrument if it is available; if not, describe the instrument. Include any information you find

about reliability and/or validity of the instrument.

● Identify other characteristics of participants that would also be important to collect as part of

the evaluation. Briefly explain the reason(s) that evaluating this program is important/needed.

(is to make sure that the elderly clients are being served appropriately
and that their depressing is decreasing pretty much making sure that the
services that their proving is doing something for the clients to get better)
