Pre-requisite • Student should study the provided handouts of each course prior to attending the course. • A series of questions to be answered by the student and turned in at the beginning of the course.
Evaluation • Evaluation is an integral part of most instructional design (ID) models. • Evaluation tools and methodologies help determine the effectiveness of instructional interventions. • Despite its importance, there is evidence that evaluations of training programs are often inconsistent or missing • Part of the explanation may be that the task of evaluation is complex in itself.
Evaluation • Goal-based and systems-based approaches are predominantly used in the evaluation of training • Kirkpatrick’s model (1959) follows the goal-based evaluation approach and is based on four simple questions that are widely known as reaction, learning, behavior, and results. • On the other hand, under the systems approach, the most influential models include: Context, Input, Process, Product
Evaluation • Student evaluates instructor’s performance, course content , educational material. • The instructor evaluates students activity in class and overall performance. • Score 0 = I disagree with the provided statement; score 1 - 4 = I agree in an ascending order)
Transcript example One credit unit = 6 training hours. Grade A= 90-100% 5 sores, B= 80-89= 4 scores, C=70-79% 3 scores. Points= multiplication of credit units and scores. X= He or She did not enroll in course or enrolled but absent (Zero). GPA= Total points divided on number of courses
