Context:

For Assessment 2, you will give a presentation on a designed program – planned to address an identified need in your community, or service. You will focus on a prioritised need for developing this plan.

Assessment Description: Presentation:

PART 1:

‐A program logic diagram for a program based on prioritised need

PART 2: A clear program plan that discusses the following:

1. The overarching goal of the program (the overall aim that you want to achieve via your program),
2. Objectives (specific desired changes that will help to meet the overall goal). There should be at least 3 objectives
3. Strategies (how you will go about achieving your aim and objectives; the activities that will contribute to the achievement of the objectives);
4. Risks or Challenges (Identify any potential challenges to the program)
   1. What may occur that can put the program at risk, what are the challenges, and how will you address them? (for example, people may not enrol?)

5. Resources required (Financial, Physical, Human)

a. (use this link for budgets http://www.flinders.edu.au/medicine/sites/pew/developing‐a‐project‐and‐ evaluation‐plan/budget/budget_overview.cfm

PART 3: Summaries/self‐peer evaluation (20%)

• Prepare a 2 page (1000 words) summary report incorporating all the sections of the presentation in brief. Use the same headings as the presentation.
• Complete the self and peer evaluation forms

Combine the 2 documents (summary and self‐peer evaluation forms) into one PDF file, and submit on Blackboard.

References and Resources:

For the presentation, you may use the planning process on PEW (Planning and Evaluation Wizard, Flinders University at http://www.flinders.edu.au/medicine/sites/pew/pew_home.cfmto complete your plan in table form.

Ensure that your objectives and strategies are SMART: Specific, Measurable, Aligned, Realistic/Relevant, and Time‐bound). Where possible, include multiple levels of action and multiple settings for your program (see Keleher et al, 2008 p124‐129 and Round et al, 2005 p7‐9)

This link provides you with an example of a completed plan and a blank form Use the example, to prepare the table first:

• a title for your program,
• goals
• 3 objectives that your program seeks to achieve
• strategies to implement these objectives
• process indicators (to monitor if the process of implementation is working)
• data collection methods (for eg: documentation, collecting data from patients, views on websites etc)
• Impact/Outcome measures ( for eg: people who are exposed to this program will report..)
• Data collection methods ( for eg: survey people in the program) This link has some examples of clear goals, objectives for varied plans.
