  • When students feel more motivated to learn -- in other words, when engagement is at a high level -- they perform better academically , improve classroom behavior, and gain a higher sense of self-esteem. Unfortunately, data -- and the direct experience of many of us teachers -- shows that lack of motivation affects many of our students, and appears to increase each year from middle school through high school. Students can demonstrate this lack of engagement by withholding effort and by “voting with their feet” through rising chronic absenteeism as they get older, and chronic absenteeism is among the highest predictors of dropping-out of school. To use terms first used by Albert O. Hirschman, it appears that the lack of student motivation is a major contributing cause to many choosing this option of “exit” (withdrawal from active engagement) over “voice” ( active participation ) in academic life.

  • I am Rogers Kanee, from Nigeria. I work with CHAI Nigeria and out mission is to save lives through public Health interventions.

    I see theory of change as a systematic tool and holistic approach to problem solving. Through a clearly defined and articulated pathway, that links interventions, immediate gains, intermediate and long-term gains of the interventions evaluated with defined indicators.

  • Very insightful and precise explanation.

  • I'm Rogers Kanee.

    I worry that my organization might fail to avoid the pitfall of context. Because of it poor spread or coverage across her area of intervention.

    To avoid this, I advise we leverage on organizations that has wide coverage to understand the context of the areas of intervention.

  • For me, the goal of the Theory of Change is to come up with new and better outcome from the actions initiated to improve and increase the income and performance of the company or organization. This will happen once an organization or company wishes to initiate a new action thru better planning that are different from the previously implemented to acquire change. Such change must results a better outcome.
