Don't forget the magic word - triangulation - which is possible by gathering a variety of data which you mention.Bronwyn hegartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12032750297040394983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770126592335075361.post-81790562554865553202010-08-23T04:30:31.296-07:002010-08-23T04:30:31.296-07:00In response to your question Bronwyn about selecti...In response to your question Bronwyn about selecting the sampling tools, I was thinking in terms of what might be the most effective ways to gather relevant information with regard to time, effort involved and cost. Questionnaires are relatively easy to administer and analyze; whereas observations, interviews and discussion groups take more time but provide valuable information not easily obtained by a questionnaire. A critical aspect of whatever tools are chosen, is making sure you are asking the right questions.Veroniquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13673602600455454238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770126592335075361.post-39732889665522501372010-08-18T00:30:19.680-07:002010-08-18T00:30:19.680-07:00Veronique your approach is spot on that a formativ...Veronique your approach is spot on that a formative evaluation in the form of a needs analysis is required for the Engineering Mechanics taster. You and Mareena are very clear about why the evaluation process is appropriate with regard to "the usefulness and effectiveness of eLearning" and to gauge the level of support for students and staff. I agree it will ensure the time and effort "implementing and developing resources" is not wasted. <br /><br />it is a very good idea to observe students using the resource and to also measure their perspectives by asking for their feedback about it and to discuss the usefulness of the resource with them. Involving industry is also a good idea and finding out how computer savvy they are. It is great to see you are thinking well ahead about how you will gather the information - interviews, observations and surveys. <br /><br />How did you decide on these particular sampling tools?Bronwyn hegartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12032750297040394983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2770126592335075361.post-40263549927873345582010-08-11T00:41:54.559-07:002010-08-11T00:41:54.559-07:00Hi we (Rachel and Katie) did the same case study a...Hi we (Rachel and Katie) did the same case study and evaluated in a similar way - may want to check us out.<br />http://evaluationofelearning.blogspot.comOur Roomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06378916272393866027noreply@blogger.com
