  6. 2. ANALYZING THE PROBLEM Study the identified problem in detail: conceptualization and literature to support Gathering data: obtain empirical evidence of hard and soft data, demographic, socio-economic data Analysis and Tabulation of data Forecasting: cohort analysis based on the age of the population

  7. 3. CONCEPTUALIZING & DESIGNING PLANS a. Identifying the prevailing trends: Human trends; society, community, norms, economic activities Environmental trends, changes in human trends b. Establishing goals and objectives c. Designing plans: more than one plan

  8. 4. EVALUATING PLANS Planning through simulation: mathematical and logic simulation Evaluating plans: Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats (SWOT) Selecting a plan according to priority: use contingency plans

  9. 5. SPECIFYING THE PLAN Implementation of the blue print Systems support: approval, legal justification Organization

  10. 6. IMPLEMENTING THE PLAN Program preparation: dissemination Organizing operational units

  11. 7. FEEDBACK OF THE PLAN Monitoring the plan Evaluating the plan Adjusting, altering, redesigning the plan

  12. FACTORS ASSOCIATED WITH ACCEPTANCE AND DISSEMINATION OF INNOVATION Rogers (2003) : 1. Characteristics & attributes of innovation 2. Types of innovative decisions 3. Communication channel 4. Characteristics of social system 5. The role of change agent

  13. 1. ATTRIBUTES OF INNOVATION a. Relative advantage: especially in personal terms b. Adaptability: comfortable to recipients; knowledge, skills, norms, culture, needs c. Complexity: additional knowledge, skills required d. Easy to experiment: pilot study and prior exposure e. Easy to observe: hard evidences

  18. PROGRAM PREPARATION a. Statement of objectives b. Statement of scope of work c. List of specifications d. List of stakeholder valuations e. Logic diagram for key stages f.  Work breakdown structure for the key stages g. Milestone schedule h. Success factors their methods of measurement i.  Bar chart for the key stages j.  Linear responsibility chart for the key stages k. Approved budget statement l.  Operating budget statement

  19. ESTABLISHING A CONNECTION Current Policy Package: Compulsory Schooling at Primary Level & KWAPM (Poor Students Trust Fund) New Policy Draft: Extending Compulsory Schooling to Secondary Level Lecture 7 And Lecture 8 By now you should have read Supplement 3 Prof Cir 14 2002 and LO2 Lamp 2 SPB 1 2007
