Kellogg's Logic Model: Program Planning and Evaluation

Overview of Kellogg's Logic Model

Kellogg's Logic Model is a systematic approach to program planning, implementation, and evaluation. It provides a framework for understanding the relationships between a program's resources, activities, outputs, and outcomes.

Key Components

• Inputs: The resources invested in the program, including funding, personnel, and equipment.
• Activities: The specific tasks or actions taken to implement the program.
• Outputs: The direct products or results of the program's activities.
• Outcomes: The changes, benefits, or results that occur as a result of the program.
• Impact: The ultimate goal or achievement of the program.

Logic Model Categories

• Theory of Change: The underlying beliefs and assumptions about how the program will achieve its goals.
• Components of the Logic Model:
  • Inputs
  • Activities
  • Outputs
  • Outcomes
  • Impact
• Assumptions: The underlying beliefs and assumptions about how the program will work.
• External Factors: The external influences that can affect the program's success.

Benefits of Using Kellogg's Logic Model

• Clarifies program goals and objectives
• Helps identify key components and relationships
• Facilitates evaluation and assessment
• Enhances program planning and implementation
• Improves accountability and transparency

Applications of Kellogg's Logic Model

• Program planning and development
• Program evaluation and assessment
• Grant writing and reporting
• Strategic planning and management
• Organizational development and capacity building

Kellogg's Logic Model

Overview

• A tool used to plan, evaluate, and communicate projects or programs by illustrating the relationships between resources, activities, outputs, and intended outcomes.

Theory of Change

• Explains how a program or project is expected to achieve its desired outcomes.
• Outlines the underlying assumptions and hypotheses about how the program will work.
• Helps to identify the most effective strategies and interventions.

Impact

• Long-term, desired outcomes of a program or project.
• Examples include:
  • Improved health outcomes
  • Increased educational attainment
  • Enhanced economic development

Inputs

• Resources invested in a program or project.
• Examples include:
  • Funding
  • Personnel
  • Equipment
  • Facilities
  • Expertise

Outputs

• Direct products or services resulting from a program or project.
• Immediate results of the inputs and activities.
• Examples include:
  • Number of people trained
  • Materials developed
  • Services provided
  • Events held

Activities

• Actions or tasks carried out to achieve the desired outputs.
• Examples include:
  • Training sessions
  • Curriculum development
  • Service delivery
  • Research and development

Outcomes

• Intermediate results that occur as a result of the outputs.
• Changes or benefits that occur as a result of the program or project.
• Examples include:
  • Increased knowledge or skills
  • Improved attitudes or behaviors
  • Enhanced capacity or infrastructure
