Techniques & Methods
This type of simulation allows learners to practice new behaviors in relatively safe environments, and can be used to work through real problems.
What is role-playing?
This step is important for continuous improvement and refinement of education.
What is evaluation?
The most common technique for measuring learning.
This data-collecting technique may be preplanned and often used to assess attitudes and values that do not involve correct answers.
What are questionnaires?
Learners typically remember this percentage of what they hear.
What is 20%?
This is a major drawback of lectures.
What is no guarantee that the material is learned and remembered?
An evaluation that occurs before or during the implementation of a learning activity.
What is formative evaluation?
A form of evaluation conducted on a one-on-one basis that is the oral equivalent to written questionnaires used to measure cognitive and affective objectives.
What is an interview?
A 3-day food record to measure behavioral change is an example of this type of report.
What is a self-report?
This is a written sequential list of steps.
What is a task analysis?
This method occurs when people learn by observing others and then imitating them.
What is modeling?
An evaluation that occurs at the end of a learning activity.
What is summative evaluation?
This exists when the same test is given twice to the same students and the score remains similar.
What is reliability?
This is an alternative form of effective evaluation that could be used when direct observation is not possible or would be too time-consuming.
What is a simulated situation or performance test?
This plan gives a flexible guide to instruction that can be used with many different individuals or groups.
This teaching method is used to combine knowledge and skill with cognitive and psychomotor objectives.
What is demonstration?
This type of research is essential for tailoring intervention strategies.
What is formative research?
These two concepts are essential to the measurement of the effectiveness of nutrition education outcomes and employee learning.
What are reliability and validity?
May include work quality and quantity, number of errors, days of absenteeism, number of grievances, and other types of problems that affect work performance.
What are performance measures?
This step in job instruction training (JIT) tests how much the employee has retained.
What is performance?
This teaching method is the most passive.
What is a simulation?
A driving test is an example of this type of evaluation.
What is a criterion-referenced evaluation?
Refers to whether the test items or questions correspond to the subject matter or purpose of instruction or to the knowledge, skills, or objectives they are supposed to measure for a specific audience by culture, age, literacy level, and the like.
What is content-related validity?
This must occur if the learner has not attained the intended knowledge or skill.
What is additional learning?
This is characterized by the progressive development of knowledge, attitudes, and skills.
What is Sequence of Instruction?
