The evaluation design will consist of a pre and post program survey for a quantitative data analysis where the survey will be assessing behaviors, attitudes and beliefs about tobacco among Dakota County high school students. III. How the program will be measured is in the pre and post program survey the questions will be designed to evaluate the high schoolers behaviors, attitudes and beliefs about tobacco. Questions that will consist of the survey include: Do you think high schoolers that smoke cigarettes have more friends compared to those who don't smoke? (Center for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], n.d.). Do you believe high schoolers risk harming themselves if they smoke from 1-5 cigarettes per day? (CDC, n.d.). Do you use tobacco for ceremonial prayer or traditional reasons? (CDC, 2008). I will also use questions adapted from the Youth Tobacco Survey presented by the CDC to examine the behaviors, attitudes and beliefs (CDC, n.d.). IV. The data collection plan will consist of the pre and post program survey that will be given out to all the high schoolers that attend the program. The indicators of the type of data will come from the existing questionnaire from the Youth Tobacco Survey. The source of my data will come from the high schoolers of Dakota County. The survey will be uploaded in Qualtrics and will be given out online. I will leave the survey open for two weeks once the program starts for the pre-test and for the post- test I will leave the survey open for two weeks after the program ends. Then I will close the survey after the two weeks to analyze the data. Timetable Objective Jun(2021) Jul. Aug. . Sep. Oct. Nov. Dec. Jan. Feb. Mar. Apr. May(2022) Pre-planning committee X X meeting
