Assignment:
After you introduce impact strategy in class, ask your students to brainstorm theories of change for their solutions. Then, ask each team to post its theory of change to your hub. Give them a due date that leaves at least one day between the post and the next time the class meets. For the second part of the assignment, ask each student (not team) to post responses (either brainstorms or questions) to at least two of their peers’ theory of change ideas.
Summary:
- All teams post an idea for theories of change they think will be effective
- All students respond to at least two of their peers’ posts
Note: Deadlines for the assignment should be structured such that all ideas are posted by a date that allows students to enough time to respond before the next class meeting.
Objective(s):
- Bring more voices into the conversation than might be possible if the discussion were limited to class time alone, and improve everyone’s theories of change in the process
- Provide instructors with the opportunity to review students’ theories of change ahead of class time, giving them a chance to tailor the class according to what they see
