Finding Out What Happens in the Field

The Use of Field Logs

Wayne D. Mitchell

Denver, Colorado

Field programs in which activities are carried out in scattered locations present special problems for documenting program activities and outcomes. When used in conjunction with other data collection methods, "activity logs" filled out by program participants can provide information which might otherwise be difficult to obtain. An example is presented of the successful use of such logs in one program, and suggestions are made for adapting this data collection device to other types of programs and for maximizing the utility of the information thus obtained.
