  18. Evaluation Fifteen Features

  19. Fifteen Features • To further conceptualize the many possibilities for evaluation • Can be included in a comprehensive model of an online program or a dual-delivery system • In a free choice environment, we have unusual opportunities to evaluate the choices of both students and faculty and to assess the way that our programs inform each other.

  20. Fifteen Features The fifteen features represent a number of measures including: • demographics • course usage • student satisfaction • objective measures of performance • qualitative measures of performance • follow up on students as they enter additional courses • measures of learning style

  21. Fifteen Features These measures are then used in a number of comparisons such as: • pre-post comparisons • comparisons on in-class and online courses • comparisons of online courses by optional features such as streaming • comparison by student variables such as demographics, learning style and course usage • comparisons by the perspectives of students, faculty and colleagues • comparisons over the curriculum from beginning courses to more advanced courses

  22. Fifteen Features The results of these measures and then provide feedback to: 14) students as they make decisions about their education 15) faculty as they continue to revise and improve courses 16) the department as additional decisions are made for resources and curriculum
