I MODULE INTRODUCTION

1 LETTER OF WELCOMESchool of Public HealthUniversity of the Western CapePrivate Bag X17Bellville7535South Africa

Dear colleague

Welcome to the “Monitoring and Evaluation for Health Services Improvement I” module.

In this module, we introduce Monitoring and Evaluation in the context of health intervention programmes. The module will cover a wide range of the basics in monitoring and evaluation.

Most of you are likely to be working in the public health sector, be it as part of your country’s national department of public health, a non-governmental organization or a sector which has some linkage with public health. This means that you have valuable experience to bring to your studies as well as to the overall field or discipline of Public Health and the practice of Primary Health Care. You will find that the Module makes intensive use of that experience, and seeks to integrate your experience with the concepts and tasks contained in this module.

Units 1, 2 and 3 will cover the basic knowledge and competences you need to understand and oversee monitoring and evaluation activities: Unit 1 will discuss, and distinguish between, “programmes and “projects”, and introduce a planning tool, the Programme Management Cycle.

Unit 2 will explore monitoring and evaluation: the definitions of the two terms, the similarities and differences between them, as well as their purpose.

Unit 3 will look at the development of programmes, outlining the development of goals and objectives as well as conceptual frameworks.

We have decided to put a pronounced emphasis on Monitoring. The reason for this coverage is that monitoring is often the most neglected aspect of the monitoring and evaluation functions, both in work and in the training of health personnel; however, it is also crucial in determining the progress as well as, ultimately, the success of health intervention efforts. While the value of evaluation is undeniable, it often comes too late in the life cycle of a project or programme to influence and ensure satisfactory outcomes. Monitoring is a

Page 6: Cover logo - University of the Western Cape€¦ · Web viewPostgraduate Diploma in Public Health Monitoring and Evaluation for Health Services Improvement I Module Guide School of

backbone of implementation, whether of a project or a programme. Hence, the longest and most practical unit, Unit 4, will cover all the steps necessary in setting up a monitoring system.

If you wish to expand your monitoring and evaluation skill set, we strongly recommend the MPH Monitoring and Evaluation in Health and Development Programmes module.

The assessment of the PG Diploma also requires of you a portfolio which is a summation of your learnings in the course of this Diploma, and which can also serve as the basis of a portfolio of evidence for a future employer or for assessment activities in your current role. You may use parts, or all, of any of the assignments of this module as a contribution to your portfolio. This portfolio must be submitted by the end of your PG Diploma programme which may be at the end of Year 1 or 2 of study, depending on your chosen pace of study. There is more about the portfolio in Section 3.

Your lecturer offers years of experience monitoring and evaluating Primary Health Care interventions in developing this module; however, this is the first time that this module is being offered. We therefore hope that you will give us feedback on your experience of the study sessions in this module as we continually desire to improve on our offerings. An evaluation form will be sent to you on completion of your final assignment. We hope you enjoy your studies.

Best wishes

2.4 The Module Guide

This Module Guide is organised into five units. Each unit is divided into a number of study sessions, each of which is about 4 - 6 hours of study time. The first page of a study session provides an overview of the session, including a brief introduction, the contents of the session, the learning outcomes (public health content and academic learning content), and the main readings.

Each study session has a combination of input (content), readings, tasks, and feedback for the tasks. By doing the tasks, you should achieve the outcomes of the study session.

3 THE PORTFOLIO: INTRODUCTION

For the PG Diploma in Public Health, you are required to prepare an electronic portfolio – a folder in electronic form – of tasks and documents produced in the course of your studies. This portfolio serves to strengthen your learning as you study and allows you to reflect on your progress and growth across the whole course, as well as the challenges you have experienced. At the same time, the portfolio should be seen as a collection of evidence of your competence in the field of Public Health. Through the Portfolio we are trying to encourage you to link and integrate the content of the six modules into a coherent whole.

Some of you will have previous experience of portfolios which provide evidence of learning in a particular field or course. Parts of the portfolio could also serve to demonstrate your competence in Public Health to current or prospective employers in furthering your career.

The Portfolio should be developed across the duration of your PG Diploma in Public Health programme, but the written report should only be completed as you are finishing your Health Promotion for Public Health I module, i.e. towards the end of your studies. A study diary kept over the duration of your studies is therefore a good idea. These guidelines are included so that you can prepare yourself

Preparing Your Portfolio The portfolio contains two parts: Part 1 - a careful selection of your work which you should compile as you work through the six modules; and Part 2 – a reflective report in which you comment on your experience and growth.

Take note of any assignments which are marked with this symbol The assignments or questions marked with this symbol are to be included in your final portfolio. In addition, you are required to write a reflective report on your work.

Keep a study diaryWhile engaged in all modules, be sure to write regular notes on your learning and achievements in a section of your study diary. Write notes at the end of each unit. This will help you in the end to develop your portfolio report as you won’t be able to recall everything that happened during the year when you reach the end of the Diploma

What can you include as part of your selection of work?

a) Samples of your work (not less than 5 and not more than 8) from across the six Postgraduate Diploma modules, which show evidence of your learning and growth over time.

b) Assignments or tasks from your module that are marked with the symbol on the right, meaning that it must be included in the portfolio.

c) Your portfolio may also include items developed in the course of your professional work since you embarked on your studies, reports or proposals you have written, training reports, audio recordings of your input, course notes from anything you have taught, posters presented at conferences … in fact anything that you consider evidence of your competence and growth, e.g. a letter of appreciation from your employees, or any similar item.

Be aware that you are required to be selective – so show your best evidence, rather than include everything you have.

Be aware that you are required to be selective – so show your best evidence, rather than include everything you have.

Guidance for Compiling Your Reflective Report (40 marks of Assignment 2 of Health Promotion for Public Health I)

Write a reflective report on your experience of the PG Diploma course. Your report should include the following items:1. A reflective report on what you have learned and how it influenced your

work.2. A diagram could be used to show how you see the different modules fitting

together.3. Highlights and challenges you have experienced in the PG Diploma course.4. Reflections on your own growth over the period of this course.5. Changes in your view of your role in Public Health.6. Gaps in your capacity as a Public Health practitioner.7. Goals for future growth in any area relevant to this course.
