A curriculum without any method of assessment or evaluation is of questionable value. Without an appropriate evaluation instrument, an educator can only guess at whether specified objectives have been achieved. Without evaluation, data that might inform future efforts is unavailable. Evaluations can be formative or summative. They can be formal or informal. They can also blend various types of methods. In Week 8, you focused on developing the curriculum for your Community Health Intervention. In this Assignment, you will determine how you will evaluate learner accomplishment.
For this Assignment:
Review the Curriculum Worksheet you completed in Week 8.
Review this week’s Learning Resources to determine the type of evaluation method that best fits the curriculum and objectives.
Review the Capstone Project Instructions (listed in the Week 2 Learning Resources) for detailed requirements for this section.
The Assignment:
Create an appropriate evaluation instrument that measures learner achievement for each of the learning objectives included in your Curriculum Worksheet.
Provide a 1- to 2-paragraph description of the purpose and rationale for your evaluation instrument(s).
