Metrics: Tutor/Mentor Events Recorded in T/MC Ohats
T/MC Event Overview: See http://www.tutormentorprogramlocator.net/OHATS/home.aspx
Documented activities in OHATS are categorized in one or more of the following categories of action:
1. Community Changes: new or modified programs, policies, or practices in the community facilitated and/or created by T/MC to support and enhance the infrastructure needed for the success of tutor/mentor programs
2. Services Provided: events produced by T/MC to provide information, instruction, or develop skills of people and organizations (The first time a service is provided it is coded as a community change; all subsequent events of that service are coded as service provided)
3. Planning products: results, or products, of planning activities within T/MC. For example, statements of objectives or the development of action plans, the formulation of committees, and the hiring of new staff
4. Resources Generated: acquisition of funding through grants, donations or gifts in kind. Donation of volunteer time and talent for specific purposes.
5. Critical Events: events considered important to the development and implementation of T/MC, but which do not fit in the OHATS documentation categories
6. Media: attention for volunteer-based tutoring/mentoring in Chicago, generated by T/MC via newspaper, radio or television, the Internet, or printed or email newsletters.
7. Community Actions: actions by T/MC with people and organizations outside of T/MC to bring about a new or modified program, policy or practice
The table on the home page, and two charts in the metrics page, show the number of events recorded, and break them down by these categories.
Of all the types of events and actions categorized in OHATS, community change is of particular importance. Community change is measured as new or modified programs, practices or policies related to the mission of T/MC. These are changes in the environment that alter the conditions that shape individual and organizational behaviors.
Studies of comprehensive community initiatives indicate the rate of community change may be related to the rate of population-level health and development outcomes. Therefore, community change is tracked as an intermediate marker of broader, more distal population outcomes.
At this point the charts on the metrics page do not have the full capacity to describe the impact of these changes. The metrics charts are based on charts in a 2002 summary of actions documented up to that point. In figure 2 and Figure 3 (page 7 of 14), two charts show the growth of community change over time, and the addition of key actions, which involve large number of other organizations.
As we find the resources, I hope to build these types of charts into the OHATS, or add them to these discussions.
