SOCW: Week 9 Social Work Research in Practice II
Assignment: Drafting a Process Evaluation
Social workers often utilize generalized intervention models that allow them to work with
various intervention approaches within their environment. This model is based on the following
premises and it includes a human behavioral connection to the socio-physical environment,
opportunities for enhancement of the human functionality, working with any level of the human
system and social workers having the responsibility beyond their direct work but to include
social policies and also to conduct research(Dudley, 2020). This model is made up of the
following processes: engagement, assessment, planning, implementation, evaluation, termination
and follow up. Evaluation is one of the critical steps in social work and it is executed at the
intervention stage because it is used to assess whether the program goals have been met.
Evaluations process helps in addressing the specific issues at the implementation stage thus
leading to a commitment to the client and also the delivery of the promised goals.
Social work process evaluation usually attempts to determine how to make a project to be
successful through keen adherence to the strategy laid out plans in the logic model. This model
focuses on the inputs, activities, and output of the logic model and how they interact for the
program efficiency. Social workers can make a clear distinction between implementation failure
and theory failure. Process evaluation ensures that the program implementation process is as per
the design. The process evaluation also creates a feedback loop process by allowing for routine
assessments for the project (Lee, Esaki & Greene, 2009). Key program elements include the: the
input; activities which are the policies, productions and behavioral change communication;
outputs including the coverage of the intervention, access to the intervention in the communities,
