Evaluation

refers to the process of utilizing assessment results to gauge and support learning, teaching and program development. Evaluation can take place at four levels:

  • Learner feedback that measures learner reaction to the program;

  • Learner learning that measures learner progress following the learning (through assessments);

  • Learner behaviour that measures observable skills acquired following learning;

  • Learning results that measure the impact of skills/knowledge acquisition on the environment in which learners function post learning.
