Overview of the EDLI Logic Model

Overview of the EDLI Logic Model

This logic model is both a program planning and a program evaluation tool for the MSU EDLI Collective.
This logic model is a visual illustration of the MSU EDLI collective’s resources, activities and expected outcomes. It is a tool used to simplify complex relationships between various components and can be used during program planning, implementation and evaluation.

Key Terms:

  • Resources/Inputs are needed to support the solutions the program proposes.
  • Activities are those actions planned to bring about intended results.
  • Participation reflects different stakeholders’ participation and engagements in the program activities.
  • Outcomes in the logic model are the short-term and intermediate results.
  • Impact is the set of changes in the long term that we expect as a result of program activities.

** Activities together with Participation are essentially Outputs of the EDLI Collective. Outputs describe the size and scope of what the program delivers or produces.
