Relationship Between Evaluation & Instructional Objectives
The document discusses the relationship between instructional objectives and evaluation. It states that the purpose of evaluation is to determine how well instructional objectives are being achieved. Assessments used for evaluation should directly relate to the objectives. Once objectives are established, ways to evaluate them can be developed by obtaining a good match between assessment types and objective types, and using multiple data sources. The choice of evaluation measures depends on factors like cost, time, required skills, availability, and accepted practices in the given context.

Relationship Between Evaluation &
Instructional Objectives
The broad purpose of evaluation is to
determine what extent the objectives of the instruction are being attained. The assessments used to inform the evaluation should therefore have a direct relationship with the objectives. Once you develop instructional objectives, you are ready to develop ways for evaluating them. For accomplishing this, two key ideas are crucial: First, obtain a good match between types of assessment instruments and types of objectives. Second, consider using several data sources to gain as complete a picture as possible about the degree of learner attainment of each objective and the processes involved. Matching Measures to Objectives • Various forms of objectives are useful for describing different types of learning outcomes. • Objectives coupled with the evaluation goals, in turn suggest certain types of measures. • Finding the measures that best fit each objective is an important evaluation task. Suggested Measures for Alternative Outcomes • The ultimate choice of evaluation measures depends on a variety of factors other than what is considered in an ideal sense to be most desirable and valid. • These factors include cost, time, skill required for test administration, instrument availability, and accepted practices in the educational or training context concerned.
