Social sciencesSkills
program design needs assessment evaluation planning data collection and analysisDo you have an idea for a new program that you would like to develop? Or, do you have a new program that needs a formal program design and/or evaluation? A class of health and human service management students will work in groups to create a variety program design and evaluation plans for you to consider or adopt in your organization.
Students
Problem Analysis: Students will analyze the problem and root cause to produce a problem statement that will inform the program design.
Needs Assessment: Students will identify the target population, including their needs, risks and protective factors and related trends.
Program Logic Model: Students will create a formal program logic model based on a recommended intervention. The program logic model will include inputs, activities, outputs and outcomes.
Program Evaluation Plan: Students will develop a evaluation plan that identifies needed data collection tools, and frequency of measurement.
Final Program Design and Evaluation Plan Presentation: Students will create and present the formal plans.

Project examples
Starting this September, a class of health and human service management students will spend the semester, under the guidance of their instructor, developing a program design and evaluation plan for an organization.
Project examples include, but are not limited to:
- Creating a needs assessment for a health or social issue, based on research and best practice. Examples of issues examined by previous needs assessments include: increased sport-related concussions in children and youth, increased use of opiate overdoses, etc.
- Designing a program logic model using change theory, which includes recommendations for appropriate intervention strategies. A program logic model is a visual representation of the program that depicts the relationship between the resources required to deliver a program, the planned activities and the intended change the program hopes to achieve. Program logic models are often a funding requirement and very useful in communicating how a program works to those inside and outside the program.
- Creating an outcome-based evaluation plan. Based on the outcomes that your program aims to achieve, students will determine the indicators of success and the data collection tools (i.e., surveys, focus groups, etc) needed to determine the effectiveness of a program.
