1. Logical Framework Analysis
Logical Framework Analysis is a management tool for effective planning and
implementation of developmental projects.
We have to distinguish between Logical Framework Approach (LFA) and Logical
Framework Matrix (often called the Logframe).
LFA is a process involving stakeholder analysis, problem analysis and strategy
selection, tools that can be used for planning, designing, implementing, monitoring,
and evaluating projects.
The Logframe, which documents the product of the LFA process, provides clear,
concise and systematic information about a project through a framework; there are
various components of a project such as goal, objectives, activities, results and
indicators, and the LFA helps in connecting all these components in one
framework, presenting the tight relationship between them, leading to the
achievement of the expected outcomes.
1.1 Stakeholders Analysis
Stakeholder analysis is the process of identifying the individuals or groups that are
likely to affect or be affected by the project, and sorting them according to their
impact on the action and the impact the action will have on them.
A stakeholder is any entity with a declared or conceivable interest or stake in the
project; Stakeholders can be of any form, size and capacity, they can be
individuals, organizations, or unorganized groups.
We identified 5 main stakeholders for our project:
University Students
Tutors
University Professors
Universities
Site administrators
University students and tutors are the main target of our project.
In fact university students are the users of our platform, looking for information
about courses and teachers, downloading material and seeking for help on
studying, while Tutors provide to students the assistance that they need in
exchange of a little income.
University professors and universities are interested in the platform because it can
help students to pass exams and obtain higher grades, so indirectly the prestige of
University goes up.
Site administrators are students or experts who develop the platform.
