The goal of this Planning Grant is to use program theory as a tool in two informal science education communities and compare the processes and models that result. Program theory is built on the principle that learning and social behavioral change is the result of the cumulative effect of multiple programs, rather than a single experience. The participating communities are the Tucson Association of Museums (TAM) and the Terrific Resources for Environmental Education (TREE) organization in Columbus, Ohio. Each organization will work collaboratively using cross-group program theory and logic modeling to initiate a discussion on program planning and an intra-group evaluation. It is anticipated that this project will result in collaborations between the Tucson and Ohio informal science education communities and the creation of a plan for evaluation of the processes involved with this work.

这项计划补助金的目标是在两个非正式的科学教育社区中使用程序理论作为工具，并比较结果的过程和模型。 程序理论是建立在学习和社会行为的变化是多个程序的累积效应的结果，而不是一个单一的经验的原则。 参与社区是图森博物馆协会（TAM）和俄亥俄州哥伦布的环境教育极好资源（TREE）组织。 每个组织将使用跨组计划理论和逻辑建模进行协作，以启动有关计划规划和组内评估的讨论。 预计该项目将导致图森和俄亥俄州非正式科学教育社区之间的合作，并制定一项评估这项工作所涉及过程的计划。
