Developing a Theory of Action
Make sure there is evidence that your proposed intervention works
When you select an intervention on your own it should represent promising or best practice, with evidence that it works somewhere.
Select a practice from a Clearinghouse or what works or use John Hattie's listing
The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) is a leading US source of evidence-based information about education programs, policies, and interventions that show promise for improving student outcomes
What is a theory of action?
You should explain how the intervention is supposed to bring out the outcomes you intend. What are the core activities.
A Theory of Action describes how a project, programme, or intervention is designed and set up. It articulates the mechanisms through which the activities are being delivered, e.g. through which actors and which pocesses. It is a delivery model for the theory of change.
One useful template is to identify (1) hypothesized action mechanisms, (1 intended intermediate effects, and (3) intended ultimate effects.
The theory of Action for this project is illustrated below
Here are some Sample TOAs
