Re:Re: Formative evaluation plans: finding courses etc.

I was reading Re: Formative evaluation plans on Blogs for the red sun.. and there were some questions that i try to answer:

1. Could an evaluation be conducted as very small poll or a survey or a open comment section on our Wiki’s discusion board.

I think it might be a good idea, however i would like to see that you all worked on it a bit.

2. …and then we’re supposed to start to peer review. Peer-review what I must ask?! After going through numerous blogs, I was able to find two different group spaces that were practically empty. There’s just so much peer reviewing that can be done on empty spaces.

The peer review idea should go so that people who are ready for their “course prototype” for reviewing and who have prepared this formative evaluation as well will PRESENT it to the other people they want to get opinions of. You should choose who these people are among our course members and externally from it.

3. It can be that I’m just that daft that I’m unable to find any other groups course plans but I seriously doubt it. To avoid similar situations could you Kai be so kind and place a explicitly visible link to our Wiki so that anyone willing to review it could see it at first glance.

I am afraid that propagating your course space for formative evaluation is part of your planning the formative evaluation. It is part of the GROUP task to make the course prototype reachable. It is a tricky thing as you already understood and needs to be discussed how to get the best result. Only if you request and show me what specifically as part of your plan, it can be for example added to the course blog sidebar. You can and should post iT ALSO HERE http://htk.tlu.ee/elearning/blog/2008/05/12/tasks-for-week-11-12th-18th-of-may/
4. As addition to this, are we assigned with a group that we should evaluate or should we just try and evaluate the ones we can find?

The other groups should find you. A least this is how i imagine it will work.
