Theory of Change Analysis (ToC analysis) is a key instrument for verification of a project logic and assessment of project results. It is a crucial element of evaluation required by multilateral agencies and international organizations, for instance, UNEP, UNDP, and WWF The trainers use a Miradi Conservation Planning software (https://www.miradi.org/) to teach the skill of making a ToC analysis by explaining such tools as a Conceptual Model, Results Chains, and Process Tracing. The participants will learn how to build a Conceptual Model in Miradi by matching together conservation targets, threats and opportunities; and to construct a Results Chain of activities, outputs, outcomes, and impact

Presenting ToC - Dhillon Vaca FINAL Oct 2016.pptx
This panel looks at how a program-theory model has been developed and used in an evaluation of an initiative designed to transform schools by assisting high schools in the development of 12th-grade capstone courses in math and science

This session shows how workshops and interviews can be used alongside other techniques to develop a program theory that incorporates a range of value perspectives. It will discuss the circumstances under which particular types of workshops and interviews are most useful and will show how to apply them, using examples. Included are several workshop and interview approaches that can be used to develop an outcomes chain as a key component of a program’s theory of change

Yet, despite this vivid attention, as Mayne himself notes (2011), there haven't been a lot of published studies that involve the systematic application of contribution analysis. This begs a number of questions: How can we bridge the divide between the sustained interest in and actual application of CA?

Such theories address the focus and role of evaluation, specific questions to be studied, design and implementation, and use of results. Although its origins can be traced to Ralph Tyler in the 1930s, later reappearing in the 1960s and 1970s, and again in the 1980s, it was not until 1990 that theory-driven evaluation resonated more widely in the evaluation community with the publication of Huey Chen’s book Theory-Driven Evaluations

What did not work as expected? What needs to change? We compare and contrast the original program logic model with the enhanced theoretical model incorporating evaluation findings. We encourage participants to discuss their ideas for future improvements, spread, and evaluation of the model to benefit more students and ultimately diversify the pipeline of students in STEM careers
