Assignment: Developing a Health Behavior Change Intervention: Final Project Part II—Methodology, Work Plan, & Challenges
You continue to work on your grant-style proposal detailing a behavior change program that you’ve designed, addressing an issue and target population of your choosing. In Part II, you are asked to write your methodology and program challenges sections as well as develop a work plan in table format. See below for more information and example areas to address in these sections.
To prepare:
Think about your chosen health behavior issue and target population. How will you specifically design and implement your program? What challenges will you face? These issues are addressed in this week’s Application Assignment.
By Day 7
In approximately 5 pages, address the following:
Methodology: This section should outline your approach, in careful detail, as the award recipient to work with providers, community partners, and/or other key stakeholders in addressing the gaps indicated above to implement your health behavior change program. What type of program are you proposing? How/where will it be implemented, how often, and how much? What are your primary outcomes to measure change? Who will you partner with to deliver the program?
Example areas/approaches to discuss in this section may include patient education, resource development, culturally based approaches to a particular problem, the development of peer support or other social networks, health information technology, telehealth, or telemedicine. If you plan to engage a group of stakeholders, how will you do it? What role will they play? These are some of the many things you should address.
Lastly, you should clearly connect your program to a health behavior theory that will serve to inform your program evaluation in Week 9. (approximately 3 pages)
Work Plan: The work plan provides a succinct overview of the project’s goals, objectives, activities and projected outcomes in table format. It must include each activity, responsible staff, partners or contractors, timeframe for completing the activity, progress or process measures, and the intended outcome. (approximately 1 page)
Program Challenges: Explain challenges you might encounter when attempting to implement your program with the target population, including communication and logistical issues. Explain how you would address those challenges. (approximately 1 page)
