Influences on program planning: what determines what you do?

1989

Scholl, J.

The author describes a study of resources used by Extension home economists in program planning. Extension home economists in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, South Dakota, and Wisconsin participated in the study. The author found that employing a variety of techniques and information resources in program planning reduces the weaknesses of using only one technique or resource, and it results in a program that is more responsive to community needs. Five needs assessment methods, on average, are used to plan a program. A list of 32 program planning influences is provided so that Extension staff can determine their own approaches to planning.
