IHP 670 Module Three Program Critique Guidelines and Rubric

Overview

You will complete five program cri�que assignments in the course to support your work as you prepare for your final project. These assignments ask that you cri�que a program described

within an iden�fied ar�cle located in the module’s resources. These ar�cles were chosen because they relate to the module’s topics and demonstrate some common problems that programs

encounter. In each assignment, you will have the opportunity to cri�que certain program components, such as resources, ac�vi�es, outcome measures, use of feedback loops, assump�ons,

and external barriers. Once planners have iden�fied the details for each of the program components, they must step back and assess how those components can best operate within the

program’s environment. That involves considering concepts such as cultural competency, systems thinking, ethical prac�ce, and others. You will focus on these different concepts, in turn,

through the program cri�ques. As you develop your program cri�que skills, you will be asked to iden�fy areas that could be or need to be improved and offer recommenda�ons.

In this assignment, you will cri�que a health or healthcare program selected for you. The program is described in the program cri�que reading found in the Resources sec�on of the module.

This is the only reading that can be used for this assignment. Analyze the informa�on based on expected and actual outcomes, the effec�veness of the program, and the areas of

improvement.

This ac�vity will help you analyze the iden�fied program’s flaws and/or shor�alls and understand how these could have been avoided or addressed. Your analysis will help you to take

preven�ve measures while planning your own program for the course project.

Prompt

Write a program cri�que analysis that cri�cally examines a health or healthcare program intended to meet a specific health need.

Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:

1. Program Outcomes: Explain how the program achieves its desired outcomes. Consider the following ques�ons to guide your response:

Is there a gap between the expected and actual program outcomes? Explain why or why not.

Would you change any of the outcome measures?

2. Program Effec�veness: Describe whether you consider this program effec�ve or ineffec�ve, including examples and evidence to support your claims. Consider the following ques�on

to guide your response:

What would you need to know about any program to decide if it is effec�ve?

3. Analysis of Improvement Areas: Analyze the areas of improvement needed concerning the program’s data collec�on, analysis, or outcome measures. Consider the following ques�ons

to guide your response:

Which two areas related to data collec�on and analysis do you believe need to be addressed to improve this program?

resources) of credible sources and be current within the last five years. You are required to cite a minimum of two sources, at least one of which should be separate from your own research.
