| Abstract: DoView is a new type of logic modeling software designed for evaluators to draw and amend logics in real-time during evaluation stakeholder meetings. The software creates 'models' of logics rather than just creating 'drawings' of them. Participants will be shown how they can use this approach to build, structure and work with large and small logic models. The way these models can be used for providing a rich description of a program, for documenting a model, and for identifying which links are supported by evidence will be discussed. In addition, ways of using the models for planning and implementing evaluations as a 'living evaluation plan' by inserting indicators and evaluation questions onto the logics will be demonstrated. Lastly, ways that HTML versions of the models can be used to front-end web-based evidence-based practice evidential summaries will be briefly demonstrated. |
