Different from formal education settings, a good deal of training does not involve measuring or evaluating the degree that learners actually learn. That may be a mistake. In this section we'll discuss different methodologies, pros and cons of evaluation and assessment of the degree training participants actually learn in training.

Evaluation permits the critical question to be asked and answered: have the goals and objectives of new curriculum have been met? It assesses individual achievement to satisfy external requirements, and provides information that can be used to improve curriculum, and to document accomplishments or failures. Evaluation can provide feedback and motivation for continued improvement for learners, faculty, and innovative curriculum developers. To ensure that important questions are answered and relevant needs met, it is necessary to be methodical in designing a process of evaluation. Nice overview that includes a diagram of amodel to assess medical competence.

Grading Practices
By
Barbara Gross Davis
-
(From the hard copy book Tools for Teaching by Barbara Gross Davis) There are no hard-and-fast rules about the best ways to grade. In fact, as Erickson and Strommer (1991) point out, how you grade depends a great deal on your values, assumptions, and educational philosophy: if you view introductory courses as "weeder" classes%u2013to separate out students who lack potential for future success in the field%u2013you are likely to take a different grading approach than someone who views introductory courses as teaching important skills that all students need to master.
