Spring 2024 SOWK 460w Class 07 Weekly Email

Email sent on to SOWK 460

I hope you are all doing well. I’m feeling a bit under the weather. I don’t want to cancel class, but we are going to meet this week online via zoom. See link below to join.

Unit Introduction and What You Will Learn

In week seven, we will continue considering our logic models submitted last week. We will be delving into how we develop a program description. When we write our executive summary, it will include your logic model as a figure, but there will also be a narrative description sharing the needs the program is addressing, the context of the program, what population served by the program, the stage of development of the program, agency resources/activities/outputs/outcomes/impacts. As students have been developing their program evaluation, they are encouraged to start considering these inter-related questions. The agenda for the class session this week is as follows:

  • A brief presentation about the MSW program by Dr. Juarez
  • Planning for presentations
  • Reviewing process for logic model development
  • Developing a rubric for our logic models
  • How we can develop a program description from our logic models
