Facilitating Organizational Change

Issued by EDUCAUSE

Badge earners are able to systematically examine how to use a series of techniques to identify performance gaps, to analyze root causes, to discover systems contexts, and to separate problem statements from solutions. They can also construct a logic model and design an inquiry cycle for a problem of practice. These tools and techniques allow badge earners to avoid quick fixes by thoroughly analyzing the problem, its causes, and the system in which it is situated before taking action.

Earning Criteria

Badge earners completed a cycle of inquiry and action plan by starting with an investigation of the problem and its causes, designing an intervention, identifying success criteria, and planning for evidence or data to be collected to determine the extent to which the intervention made a difference. In addition, badge earners identified evidence to enable documentation of the initiative and potential mid-course corrections during implementation.
