This course introduced the purpose and practice of utilizing logic models for design and assessment in the international education context. This course emphasized fundamental principles and utilization of a Logic Model, which includes two parts, a Theory of Change and a Program Logic Model, which were further developed and utilized in the Design and Assessment course.

A Logic Model is a visual map of the strategies and inputs used to achieve the desired results and outcomes of a program. Working in my Design and Assessment group, we developed a Theory of Change and Program Logic Model for our work with the French Teaching Intern Program.

 

 

Note: Read the PLM from left to right using “if/then” statements. For example, “if there are weekly meetings between FTIs and MTs,” then “FTIs will apply feedback from MTs.” The PLM can be read left to right along the “strands,” or categories, based on the activities (designated by symbols).
