In this section, we want to know the current state of infrastructure and educational furniture educational unit. 1.2.2.1 Real
Educational
inventory is made of educational goods distributed in the different raids, according to the following details, interested in knowing the current state of the same:
1.3 Identifying the Problem of the Education Unit
The management team identifies the problem of the educational unit from the identified problems in every aspect analyzed in previous sections such as:
1.3. 1 Identification of Problem Teaching
Once the participatory assessment is completed and has identified the main problem, the situation is projected without project. This step means, analyze existing resources: educational, infrastructure and school furniture and educational goods. That is, if an optimal allocation of those that does not involve major investments, it is possible to respond to problems identified.
In the absence of a marginal solution, ie that the problem can not be resolved despite the best allocation of resources, it justifies the project design.
To identify the most important educational problem, are ordered by their importance and is selected by consensus that it is common. We suggest the following steps: Note
-
problems common in the educational unit.
-
For each problem, consider the following aspects:
-
Who (students, teachers, principals, community) and how many are affected?
-
What areas of learning affects or how it affects the quality of the educational process?
-
How long is deemed necessary to resolve it?
-
What resources are available to solve it?
-
What other resources are needed?
-
What are the consequences if not resolved the problem?
-
Each of these aspects, we must assign a score.
-
The problem with the highest score is considered the most important.
1.3.2 Infrastructure Problem Identification and Educational furniture.
Educational Projects for Nucleus, the management team and board of education:
identify, prioritize, hierarchy and consensus on the demand for infrastructure and educational furniture.
And according to the complaint must meet the real needs of the population in a participatory educational planning for the next five years.
1.4 Status "Without Project"
Once the participatory assessment is completed and has identified the main problem, is projected without the project. This step means, analyze existing resources: educational, infrastructure and school furniture and educational goods. That is, if an optimal allocation of those that does not involve major investments, it is possible to respond to problems identified.
In the absence of a marginal solution, ie that the problem can not be resolved despite the best allocation of resources, it justifies the project design.
1.5 Status "With Project"
a) Value of Objective General Education Project with the current educational policy.
To formulate the objective of the educational project, take into account the objectives of the Program on Education Reform and define: What is your contribution?
b) General Education Project Objectives and Indicators

- Which groups of people will benefit?
- To what extent? (Meta)
- In what period? (Time)
To facilitate the assessment of the overall objective should be established with precision: the impact indicators, measurement units and targets.
c)
Target Population The target population is the same benefits directly to educational projects. Differentiate the population is required to be addressed and educational levels.
d) Alternatives Analysis and Selection
Once the most important problem of the Education Unit has been selected and identified The general objective of education, it is chosen instrument. The instrument allows to clarify the purpose and direct the activities of the action plan of the educational project.
To select the most appropriate to the educational project, an analysis of alternatives. This step is to assess and monitor the proposed instruments according to:
