Assignment #2: Goals and ObjectivesThis section is a very important piece of the program plan. As presentations are made on programs, and as programs are implemented, monitored, and evaluated there will be many occasions where those involved will want to refer back to goals and objectives. They build on Assignment #1: Problem Analysis, and they become the basis for Assignments 3 & 4. The details for preparing goals and objectives are included in Chapter 7.
The following content should be included in your presentation of goals and objectives:
1.Introduction An opening paragraph should set the stage for this section of the plan. In this Paragraph you should focus on the higher level statements in your program hypothesis – what it is that you hope to do through your intervention.
2. Goal Statement Write one goal statement that meets all the specifications for a goal statement as mentioned in Chapter 7 and that will cover the entire program plan.
3. Outcome Objectives, Process Objectives, and Activities List your objectives under these headings: I Goal III Ultimate Outcome Objective XXX Intermediate Objective XX Process Objective 1.1 Activity 1 Activity 2Continue until all objectives are “packaged” in a way that the ultimate outcome, intermediate outcome process and activities lay out a clear set of expectations and actions designed to achieve them.
