Description:
Logic models are simple roadmaps that connect your resources, your planned activities, and the results you hope to achieve. In this session, we will walk through each part of a logic model, including inputs (resources like staff time or funding), activities (what you will do, such as tutoring or holding family workshops), outputs (immediate results like the number of students served), outcomes (short-term changes such as improved reading scores), and impact (long-term changes such as higher graduation rates). We will also show how logic models can connect to your school and district priorities (including LCAP and SPSA plans) and introduce practical tools for data collection. Don’t worry if this feels new. We’ll break it down step by step.
Objectives/Goals:
- Understand the purpose and value of logic models.
- Learn how to connect logic models with funding opportunities.
- Explore simple data tools that strengthen proposals.
