Week 6
Methodology: Formative Evaluation
DISCUSSION
PURPOSE
The purpose of the discussion this week is to create a plan for the formative evaluation. (Please refer to the Week 6 Intervention Fidelity Lesson for this discussion). The intervention must be implemented as planned to achieve outcome success. As the project manager, you will create a process to check if the intervention is being implemented as planned. This process is called the formative evaluation. Intervention fidelity is high when the intervention is implemented almost exactly as planned. Low intervention fidelity indicates there is variance in the intervention implementation.
INSTRUCTIONS
Review this week’s readings and provide your response in 150 words or less:
- State your practice question in PICOT format.MY PICOT PICOT Question: In adults who were newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at a primary care clinic, does the implementation of the CDC Diabetes Prevention Program compared to current practice affect fasting blood glucose levels over 8-10 weeks?P (Population): Adults who were newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes at a primary care clinicI (Intervention): Implementation of the CDC Diabetes Prevention ProgramC (Comparison): Current practiceO (Outcome): Fasting blood glucose levelsT (Time): Over 8-10 weeks
- Describe the formative evaluation plan for your project design, outlining the steps and/or tools you will utilize as the project manager to conduct this week-to-week assessment process.
- Detail your plan for feedback if the results of the formative evaluation demonstrate low intervention fidelity.
Use Grammarly and current APA format for the posts. Do not repeat the prompts in the post. Provide respectful and thought-provoking feedback to your student colleagues. Ask for clarification and elaboration if needed.
