Section Goal

On completion of this section, you will understand that a logic model depicts the reasoning--the logic--of a program that is the program's theory of change. You will see how the outcome chain (from the previous section) fits into the logic model.

More specifically you will:

 
  1. Recognize that programs have a theory of change (or theories of change), either implicit or explicit.
  2. Understand that a theory of change represents a series of if-then relationships--causal linkages.
  3. Appreciate the necessity for identifying and exploring all possible connections in the program action.
  4. Recognize common theories often used in education and outreach programs.
  5. Be able to draw the causal connections for a focused program example.
