Goals and Objectives represent the Strategic Directions of your Project
Activities comprise the Project Work Plan, which should include details for each activity (Who?, What?, When?, Where? How?)
Outputs link directly to project activities; activities are what is done…outputs are the expected results of what is done
Outcomes relate to your objectives; objectives are desired, outcomes are the expected results
Impacts relate to goals; a goal is desired, impacts are the expected end-results

  1. Good presentation of the program through your LM. Good starting point for you and your stakeholders to visualize the program. Are there any immediate results that are more specifically related to their understanding of Art and History? Also did you consider the impact of external factor and assumptions on the program?
