Evaluative Practice in Learning, Design, and Technology provides learning, design, and technology stakeholders with comprehensive resources intended to support their engagement in evaluative activities. Evaluation—the process that determines whether performance results have been achieved and meet expectations within an organization—is an important step in the instructional design process. However, the field’s current literature is largely missing coverage of influential contextual factors and evidence-based techniques. This book presents a thorough overview of the theoretical foundations that influence evaluation practices, identifies and distinguishes between numerous evaluative methods, and emphasizes the decision-making skills required of those leading and implementing evaluation. Graduate students and professionals will be better prepared to meet the expectation of competency in formative, summative, and program evaluations.
