The "Holy Trinity" Lecture Flashcards
Systematic Exploration and Verification:
The philosophy is surprisingly simple and is embodied in this line of inquiry:
Is there a p__/o__? (needs assessment)
How should it be a__? (program design)
Was the ‘s__’ a__ and u__? (program evaluation)
problem/opportunity
addressed
solution, appropriate, useful
Questions to be asked for Needs Assessment:
W__ is needed? How do we k__?
Who do we need to t__ to?
What d__ do we need?
How do we v__ existing data?
Do we need to conduct our own s__?
How do we i__ our findings?
what, know
talk
data
verify
studies
integrate
Questions to be asked for Program Design:
Based on our determination of what is n__:
How do we move our s__ in the desired direction?
Has anything like this ever been a__ before? How did it w__ out?
W__ do we need to involve? How will they potentially r__?
What r__ will likely be required?
What are the potential c__ and b__?
What are the potential unanticipated c__?
What are our c__ plans?
What m__ will be needed to assess our p__/s__?
needed
system
attempted, work
who, react
resources
costs, benefits
consequences
contingency
measures, progress/success
Program Evaluation:
Fundamental to program evaluation is b__ evaluations into the p__ as e__ in the process as possible
How will we know if the program is generating the d__ results?
What m__ can we employ?
~Do they already e__ or should we c__ our own?
~When using m__ measures, what r__ between those measures do we expect?
What is the basis of our test(s)?
~W__, w__, w__, under what c__?
building, program, early
desired
measures
exist, create
multiple, relationships
who, when, where, conditions
Program Evaluation Questions:
How much have we s__? Are we on b__?
Are we proceeding on s__?
Are we willing to endure any unforeseen c__?
Are our measures s__?
spent, budget
schedule
consequences
sufficient
Who Does What?
Ideally, __ teams at a minimum carry out the process, each team r__ for its own a__.
Organization leader(s) function in a c__ and o__ role.
three, responsible, area
coordinating, oversight
How Long Do We Persist? Avoiding Sunk Costs:
Who will determine the program’s l__ s__? Its t__, c__, or e__?
Based on w__?
If applied in a new l__ or d__, what d__ might be encountered?
life span, termination, continuation, expansion
what
location, domain, differences
