Goals and Objectives-Assignment

Consider the content of your posts in this week’s discussion forums and the feedback that you have received, then organize the information that you have collected into a document that clearly and thoroughly states your goal and objectives and describes the methods through which they can be achieved. Please note that the goal of this activity is to ensure that you develop a coherent narrative of your goal, objectives, and proposed methods. That being so, do not neglect to integrate the feedback that you have received from your peers and/or instructor. To develop a coherent narrative, consider the following steps:

Part One – Goals and Objectives: Clearly state the goal and objectives to be achieved. To ensure clarity, you may not want to have more than three objectives supporting the main goal. Keep in mind that a goal is an overall statement of what you wish to accomplish. Goals are always broad and general. Your goal must be linked to your problem statement. When writing about your goal, you will use words such as decrease, deliver, develop, establish, improve, increase, produce, and provide. Please review the Program Goals and Objectives section in your textbook. Also consider that an objective describes a problem-related outcome of your program. An objective clearly defines the population served and states the time when the objectives will be met. Objectives are always stated in numerical terms. Objectives are specific, measurable, time-bound, and doable.

Part Two – Methods and Timeline: The method section flows naturally from the problems and objectives section. Methods clearly describe program activities and state reasons for the selection of activities. The sequence of activities is outlined, and staffing, program, clients, and client selection are detailed. The method section presents a reasonable array of activities that can be accomplished within the time allotted and with the resources available to the applicant (i.e., your organization).

In summary, for the section devoted to methods and timeline, consider addressing each of these points:

• Describe the activities and strategies to be used to accomplish the stated goal and objectives (i.e., implementation – activity part).
• Explain how participants will be selected (i.e., implementation – recipient part).
• Provide research and sources that justify the use of these activities and strategies (i.e., justification of implementation).
• Describe procedures used to assess whether the proposed activities accomplish the stated goal and objectives (assessment plan).
• List individuals who will carry out the plan outlined in the document.
• Include a brief paragraph summarizing the qualifications of key individuals involved.
• Develop timeline.
• Describe the specific activities/strategies using a timeline. Feel free to use the instructor’s sample timeline or develop your own.
