Logic Model

We use our logic model to bring strategic focus, realizable goals, operational effectiveness, and execution excellence to our work.

Being Accountable

We believe in evaluating our work, our results, and our impact on the people we serve. The more we know about what works in each specific context, the better we will respond to the unique learning needs of each child in every local community and country. 

Commitment to Monitoring and Evaluation

What is a Logic Model?

The Age of Learning Foundation logic model is a graphic representation of our theory of change. It displays the connections and interdependencies between our program elements. It illustrates how our interventions and processes shape our outputs, outcomes, and  impact across our six areas of priority.

Securing mastery learning for all requires collective effort

Everyone has to do their part. From the learners themselves, to the teachers, families, schools, education systems, and value network of stakeholders that support them, all hands are needed to eliminate the barriers that prevent children from learning.

Our logic model is well-grounded.
We need your help to achieve our goals.

Mastery learning can help bring learning poverty to an end. Children who have the skills to master what they learn can never be learning poor.

70 percent of children worldwide are facing learning poverty. They are reaching the age of 10 without being able to read simple sentences, complete basic math, establish strong learner identities, or build social relationships. 

We have an opportunity to do things differently.

The Zone of Proximal Development

You have heard of athletes getting into the “zone.” Learning is just like that. There is a zone where children can experience “learning flow.” Lev Vygotsky, the Russian child psychologist, called it the Zone of Proximal Development. It is that remarkable space where learning is neither too difficult nor too easy. It is just right to help children build a true love of learning and acquire the tools and skills they need for mastery.

One-to-one mastery learning for all

Benjamin Bloom, the American education psychologist, discovered that children who receive one-to-one mastery learning perform much better than peers in conventional classrooms. Bloom therefore challenged the world to identify methods of group instruction that could be as effective as one-to-one tutoring. The Age of Learning Foundation is answering Bloom’s call in our partner countries.
