You can blame the lateness of this post on my pilgrimage to Womad. I see there has been a lot of action on your blogs while I was away, so tomorrow I will post a summary of week three activity. This week is probably the driest one with regard to evaluation theory. You do need to have an understanding about the main inquiry paradigms and models which currently influence evaluation. If you can see it as a set of terms regarding current beliefs about how evaluation is done, things will seem easier, though there are some very long terms to get your larynx around. There is no need to memorise the terms though as I will certainly not be testing you. Hopefully you will get this posting as an email.
Things to do:
- Attend the optional fortnightly class meeting on Thursday 19 March 2009 - 7 to 8pm (NZST, +12hrs GMT)- web conference. This will be a discussion about quality and eLearning Guidelines and will be recorded.
- Read the article on paradigms by Professor Tom Reeves.
- Look at some information about ten different evaluation models.
- Compare two different models in an article about evaluation models by Bronwyn Hegarty, 2003.
