Developing a Program Evaluation

Assignment: Developing a Program Evaluation
To ensure the success of a program evaluation, a social worker must generate a specific detailed plan. That plan should describe the goal of the evaluation, the information needed, and the methods and analysis to be used. In addition, the plan should identify and address the concerns of stakeholders. A social worker should present information about the plan in a manner that the stakeholders can understand. This will help the social worker receive the support necessary for a successful evaluation.
To prepare for this Assignment, identify a program evaluation you would like to conduct for a program with which you are familiar. Consider the details of the evaluation, including the purpose, specific questions to address, and type of information to collect. Then, consider the stakeholders that would be involved in approving that evaluation. Review the resources for samples of program evaluations.
Submit the following:
· A 1-page stakeholder analysis that identifies the stakeholders, their role in the agency and any concerns that they might have about the proposed program evaluation
· A 2-page draft of the program evaluation plan to submit to the stakeholders that:

  • Identifies the purpose of the evaluation
  • Describes the questions that will be addressed and the type of information that will be collected
  • Addresses the concerns of the stakeholders that you identified in your Stakeholder Analysis

Theories of Deviance: Interview Analysis

 
Theories of Deviance: Interview Analysis: NO PLAGIARISM! Turnitin in effect.
Not everyone agrees about why some people break rules while others follow them. Now that you have learned some of the main theories of deviance, you are ready to put your sociological perspective in gear and find out what other people’s views are on this topic.
This Assignment has two parts. Part 1 is to conduct two brief interviews. Part 2 is to apply the theory of deviance that you think best describes each respondent’s views on why deviance occurs and how it could be prevented.
Part 1: Interview two people to learn what they think are the main causes of deviance (not just crime, but all rule breaking) in the U.S. society today. Also, ask respondents for their ideas about the remedy for deviance.
These two questions might be helpful to structure your interview. Remember, this is a brief interview, not an in-depth investigation into your respondents’ views.

  • What are some of the reasons that you think are behind deviance in today’s society?HINT: Be prepared to explain the difference between deviance and crime, but be sure to tell the respondent that you are interested in all rule-breaking, not just criminal acts.
  • What do you think are some effective ways to prevent people from breaking society’s rules?HINT: Encourage the respondent to think about juvenile and adult deviance as they answer this question.

Part 2: In a 2–3 page paper, summarize and interpret each of your respondents’ answers. Use one theory of deviance to help explain each respondent’s answers. For instance, respondent one might have said that kids who hang out with bad kids are bound to turn bad. You might choose differential association theory to help explain this respondent’s answers.
No outside resources are required for this Assignment, but to earn full credit you must use in-text citations (in APA format) to the course materials to substantiate the definitions of the theories that you use to explain your respondent’s answers.
Be sure that your paper is written in essay form and that it includes these elements: Use reference from : Macionis, J. J. (10/2013). Sociology, 15th Edition.

  • An introduction that explains the purpose of the interviews, describes who was interviewed (estimated age, relationship to you) and under what conditions (i.e., at work, at home, in public place such as the grocery store, while watching your child’s soccer game).
  • A detailed summary of each interview with generous quotes from the respondent. DO NOT just include the script of the questions asked and responses given.
  • Two separate paragraphs that apply a theory of deviance to explain each respondent’s ideas about the causes of deviance and how it can be prevented. You may find that the same theory explains both respondents’ views, but you will still need to apply the theory to the detailed responses of each respondent in a separate paragraph.
  • A conclusion that summarizes what you learned from the interview process and briefly explains how your views about rule-breaking and its prevention align with those of your respondents.
  • You must download and follow the Professional Interview Protocol document.   (document attached)That Protocol requires that you schedule each interview for a specific date and time, that you record and submit your interview notes, and that you do not interview relatives or friends for this Assignment.

Prepare a draft outline that highlights what your proposal narrative might look like for your chosen public health FOA.

Proposal Narrative Draft Outline

It is a good idea to always begin with an outline of the information you eventually want to turn into a full document. Writing the narrative of a grant or contract is no different. A draft outline is a tool that can help you organize your thoughts and develop a narrative that is fully descriptive of what you want to write about.
Using the weekly readings, the South University online library resources, and the Internet, research how to write a draft outline. Then, address the following:

  • Prepare a draft outline that highlights what your proposal narrative might look like for your chosen public health FOA.

As this is an outline, use bullet points to identify the areas your proposal narrative will address. Be sure to include a title page, an abstract, and a reference page.

Submission Details:

  • Write a 3-5-page paper in Word format, and use APA for citation of sources.
  • Use the following file naming convention: LastnameFirstInitial_W2_A2.doc.
  • By the due date assigned, deliver your assignment to the Submissions Area.
  • On a separate page, cite all sources using the APA format.

ASSIGNMENT 2: SEXUAL DISCONNECT
DUE 8/15/18
Imagine that you are working as a counselor in an elementary school. A teacher has come to you, concerned that a student in her class might have been sexually abused. She explains that she became concerned when two of her 5-year old male students did not come out of the restroom after she called to them several times from the door. When she went in to check on them, she saw the boys facing each other, with Kyle’s pants around his ankles. Brandon was touching Kyle’s penis and both boys were laughing. In addition to her concern about abuse, the teacher is wondering if the boys could be gay.
· As the counselor, explain to the boys’ teacher whether their behavior is indicative of sexual abuse. Remember to reflect on the research you have learned about, and give details to demonstrate why you might come to that conclusion.
· How would you respond to the teacher’s question about the boys’ sexual orientation, based on research?What recommendations should you, as the counselor, give to the teacher?  Keep in mind research pertaining to the promotion of healthy sexual development by parents and schools.Your response should be at least 3 pages long, not counting the cover page and reference page.
