10.17 - TEDx and Task Schedules

Today in class we reviewed the three types of approaches to logic models (names and definitions below).

Theory Approach - focuses on the ideas and concepts behind a plan and proceeds with those ideas in mind.

Activities Approach - focuses on the work that the team will do

Outcomes Approach - focuses on using resources to produce specific outcomes.

We then watched the following TEDx video and responded to the questions below.

1 - What change does Dudley want to promote in the world?
2 - Which approach model would help Dudley produce this change? (Explain your response)
3 - What do you think about Dudley's plan? (Explain your response)

After everyone had a chance to respond to these questions, we discussed students' answers.

Next, project teams got together and finalized their logic models so that these could be shared with Mrs. Millhime.

I then handed out Task Schedules so that teams could organize and coordinate the work they are doing. Important points we covered related to this were:

1 - Have dedicated contact people that will consistently get in touch with contacts (your human resources).
2 - Everyone should have one task before people are assigned two tasks (the idea here being to make sure that one person isn't taking on all of the group's work).

Everyone had the rest of the period to complete this work. I went around and met with groups giving people the go-ahead to proceed with various tasks.

Homework:

Complete your revisions for the results sheet.

Complete missing work and revise any assignment that scored below a 92.
