Level 1 Evaluation Assignments

Overview of the Assignment

For this assignment you will create a level 1 evaluation for your case study. Your book discusses a pre and post class level 1 evaluation (pp 62-66) and the more common end of class (or end of section) level 1 evaluation. For this assignment you will be creating an end of class (or end of section) evaluation. Review the Level 1 evaluation information in your evaluation plan from week 3. Think through the following questions before creating your level 1 evaluation (you will also discuss these with your group this week):

· What information do you want to collect?

· Why do you want to collect this information?

· How many points do you want to include on your likert scale? (and do you want an odd or even number?)

· Who will use this information?

· When will you do your evaluation?

· How will you distribute your evaluation? (paper, online survey, email, other?)

Requirements for the Level 1 Evaluation “Paper”

Because this is an evaluation that will be distributed to others, it does not need to be in APA format. However it does need to be 12 point and Times-Roman font. Correct grammar should be used throughout the evaluation.

Assignment:

The level 1 evaluation will include:

· Space for student name, unless you want the survey to be anonymous.

· Instructions for completing the level 1 evaluation.

· At least 5 questions using a Likert Scale. For example, a 5-point Liker scale might include Strongly Disagree – Strongly Agree as indicated below:

SD D N A SA

1 2 3 4 5

Reminder: When using a Likert Scale, write the question in a form of a statement to which the respondent can either agree or disagree.

Example:

1. HRD 4404/5504 is a valuable class for HRD and PTE professionals working in the fields of HRD and education.

· At least 2 open-ended, short answer questions with space for the answers.

Although you are not required to use it, I have included a template for the level 1 assessment on the last page of this handout to help with the formatting of your Likert scale.

To submit this assignment, add your level 1 evaluation assignment, beginning on a new page, to the end of your case study and evaluation plan from week 3 and submit via the link on the week 4 of our moodle page. The reason for including the case study information (from weeks 2 and 3) is so your peers and I can have the details of your case study and your evaluation plan as context as we review your level 1 evaluation.

Be prepared to discuss with your peers and with Robin your rationale for each aspect of your level 1 evaluation. This includes why you included a space for student name or decided on an anonymous survey, why you asked each of the questions you asked, why you chose a 3, 4, 5, point Likert scale, etc.

OPTIONAL Bonus Points Assignment: Make your Level 1 Evaluation an Online Evaluation in Survey Monkey or Google Forms (possible 5 bonus points)

You may find it useful to learn to create your level 1 evaluation in an online survey tool. You will get up to 5 bonus points for completing the bonus assignment which includes creating your Level 1 Evaluation online instead of creating it in MS Word.

For more information on the extra credit assignment, see the handout in the Framework entitled, Bonus Point Assignment: Level 1 Evaluation Survey Monkey-Google Forms Assignment.
