Abstract

The Theory of Change (ToC) is a critical tool for nonprofit organizations and philanthropic entities. ToC provides a structured approach to designing, monitoring, and evaluating social change initiatives. This study focuses on a community development activity aimed at building the capacity of Creative Commons Indonesia (CCID) and Wikimedia Indonesia (WMID) through a ToC training. The training employed the Service Learning (SL) method, which emphasizes practical application and community interaction. Seven participants engaged in a comprehensive program that included pre- and post-tests, presentations, group discussions, case studies, and practical exercises. Evaluation through paired t-tests revealed a significant increase in participants’ understanding, with pre-test scores (M = 6.14) rising to post-test scores (M = 8.86). Participants successfully developed structured ToC frameworks for their projects, demonstrating their enhanced capability to design effective social and educational interventions. The success of the training underscores the value of ToC in program planning and evaluation, contributing to more sustainable and effective social and educational programs.

Abstract

This qualitative case study investigates the impact of informal learning experiences at a natural history museum on individuals' reasoning about evolution. Four Indonesian participants, aged 25-30, were interviewed about their understanding of evolutionary concepts after engaging in free-choice museum visits, while two did not visit the museum. Interviews were analyzed using a coding scheme to identify three reasoning patterns: Informed Naturalistic Reasoning (INR), Novice Naturalistic Reasoning (NNR), and Creationist Reasoning (CR). Findings reveal that museum-goers predominantly employed INR, demonstrating a clearer understanding of evolutionary concepts through gene mutation and inheritance, while non-museum-goers frequently used NNR and CR, reflecting intuitive and religious perspectives. The study highlights the museum's role in facilitating scientific understanding and suggests that informal learning environments can effectively complement formal education in fostering scientific literacy.
