MODULE 6B (FOR LAC LEADERS): MONITORING AND
EVALUATION OF LEARNING DELIVERY
MODALITY IMPLEMENTATION
It is time to establish the measures to track your Division’s progress in the
delivery of the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELCs) through your
chosen learning delivery modalities (LDMs). As a specialist of the SDO, you
should keep an eye on the progress of your Schools. Monitoring and evaluation
(M&E) will enable you to make timely decisions to address challenges, leverage
on opportunities in an efficient and effective manner, and provide relevant
support to your Schools.
This Module will walk you through the process of planning the M&E of LDM
implementation at the school level, and identifying measures of success.
MODULE OBJECTIVE
By the end of this Module, you will be able to support the M&E of the implementation of the
LDMs adopted by the schools in your Division.

32 Module 6B (For LAC Leaders): Monitoring and Evaluation of Learning Delivery Modality Implementation
LESSON 1: BASIC M&E CONCEPTS AND KEY RELATED FRAMEWORKS
By the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
1. define M&E
2. describe two frameworks relevant to M&E: Theory of Change and
Kirkpatrick’s Levels of Monitoring and Evaluation of Training
3. relate the two frameworks as they apply to LDM implementation
Key Topic/Concept
Theory of Change, Kirkpatrick’s Levels of Monitoring and Evaluation of Training,
elements of M&E
Resources Required
33 Readings on Theory of Change and Kirkpatrick’s Levels of Monitoring and
Evaluation of Training
33 Thought Organizers for Module 6B
33 Study Notebook
ACTIVITY 1.
1. Before we define what M&E is, let us first get familiar with some frameworks or
guiding concepts and principles involved in M&E, specifically, Theory of Change
and Kirkpatrick’s Levels of M&E of Training. Visit the following websites to read
about Theory of Change and Kirkpatrick’s Levels of M&E. You may also check other
websites to further understand these concepts and the related principles.
a. Theory of Change: https://www.theoryofchange.org/what-is-theory-of-change/.
b. Kirkpatrick’s Levels of M&E of Training:
https://training.lbl.gov/Resources/TrainingEvaluation.html
2. Reflect on the following questions:
a. What are the similarities between Theory of Change and Kirkpatrick’s Levels of
M&E? Write your answer in your Study Notebook.
b. How are the two frameworks related? Use the Thought Organizer for Lesson 1,
Activity 1 to help you correlate the key elements of the two frameworks.

ACTIVITY 2.
1. Open the Thought Organizers for Module 6B file.
2. Read through the definitions of “monitoring” and “evaluation.” Search online for
more definitions of these two concepts. Check out the common words among the: (a)
definitions of monitoring and (b) definitions of evaluation. Connect the common words
to write your own one-sentence definition/description of each of the following:
a. monitoring
b. evaluation
c. relationship between monitoring and evaluation
Use the Thought Organizer for Lesson 1, Activity 2 for this activity.
ACTIVITY 3.
Conduct LAC Session 11. In this LAC Session, lead the discussion of the questions in
Activities 1 and 2 in this lesson.
1. What are the similarities between Theory of Change and Kirkpatrick’s Levels of
M&E? How are they related? Use the Thought Organizer for Lesson 1, Activity 1 to
guide the discussion.
2. What does “monitoring” mean? What about “evaluation?” Encourage LAC Members
to share their own definitions.
3. How can you use Theory of Change and Kirkpatrick’s Level of M&E for the M&E of
School LDM implementation?
Set a date and time for LAC Session 12, which you will hold at the end of Lesson 2.
Well done! You have completed Lesson 1. You may now proceed to Lesson 2.
34 Module 6B (For LAC Leaders): Monitoring and Evaluation of Learning Delivery Modality Implementation
LESSON 2: M&E FRAMEWORK AND PLANNING
By the end of this lesson, you will be able to:
1. discuss the framework for the M&E of School LDM implementation
2. describe the structure of the M&E plan and the planning process
3. discuss how M&E data will inform the decision-making of schools and
the Division on any necessary changes and adjustments to School LDM
implementation
Key Topics/Concepts
M&E framework, M&E plan
Resources Required
33 LDM Implementation M&E Framework
33 M&E Plan Template

33 Study Notebook
ACTIVITY 1.
Study the LDM Implementation M&E Framework.
Reflect on this question: What elements of LDM implementation do schools need to monitor
and evaluate? Write your answers down in your Study Notebook.
ACTIVITY 2.
1. Study the M&E Plan Template.
2. Answer the following questions using the Thought Organizer for Lesson 2, Activity 2.
a. What developments or situations will make the schools in your Division change
their LDMs?
b. What M&E data will they need to make this decision?
c. What issues or constraints do you foresee arising if the schools in your Division
change their LDMs?

ACTIVITY 3.
Conduct LAC Session 12. In this LAC Session, lead the discussion on:
1. the M&E elements as indicated in the M&E Plan Template.
2. the questions in Activity 2. Use the Thought Organizer for Lesson 2, Activity 2 to guide
the discussion.
Collect the School M&E Plans of all LAC Members. After checking their submissions, submit
the Plans to the Schools Division Superintendent for consolidation and further action, if
necessary.
Schedule LAC Session 13, which you will hold as you go through Module 7B.
Congratulations! You have completed Module 6B. You may proceed to Module 7B.
