SELECTING A THEORETICAL MODEL
Evaluation is inextricably bound up with learning – both individual learning and collective learning. Different perspectives and different theoretical models of evaluation tend, therefore, to be based on different theories of learning.- Evaluation based on systems learning theory
- Evaluation based on cognitive learning theory
- Evaluation based on social learning theory
- Evaluation based on knowledge development theory
Hand out 1 on Models of Learning
- System learning
- Cognitive learning
- Social Learning
- Knowledge Development
Each of these learning style models can be mapped to a corresponding evaluative focus.
Hand out 2 learning and evaluation styles
| Learning style | Predominantly corrective | Predominantly cognitive | Predominantly socia | Predominantly knowledge based |
| Evaluation focus | Giving feedback and information | Providing stimuli or stimulus configuration | Being a faction within a communicative domain | Handling and managing information |
