=Group 4: Assessment = Group Members' Names:Jay Halverson and Keith Nunelee

Here is what you enter on this wikipage:

1. How will you assess your learning experience (in your final project)? How will you know if your goals (learning goals) were met? Provide enough information so that your partner (and I) can understand and provide feedback.

2. Begin to create your assessment on this wikipage - use the info from the Andrew Churches link on the previous page. This is just a BEGINNING - a DRAFT. ======

(Suggestion: You can create it as text only (make a bulleted list) or make your table (most rubrics are in tables) in Word and then copy and paste into the wikipage. (***I find it difficult to edit tables in wikispaces. For some reason adding rows and columns once you split/merge cells is difficult. However, if there aren't split/merged cells then you should be fine!).** =====

4. It's up to you how you want to organize this page with your partner! 5.  ***Don't forget to click SAVE after you edit your work! 6. Please place your names above your work so that we can identify your work, too! J.C. Halverson INSYS 497 “Train the Trainers” online collaboration project The project I am doing is spread out over eleven states and involves 52 people divided into two groups, the northern tier and southern tier. The project is to teach select staff at 22 different Job Corps Centers how to become trainers in the “Positive Normative Culture” training design. In conjunction with the INSYS497 class the following assessment guidelines are being developed. __Project Goals__- for participants to use and edit training design materials, to perform training sessions at their centers, to engage in online discussion __Participant Goals__- for individuals to develop and increase their knowledge and understanding of the training material by editing and adding their own and other’s experiences, to learn from their peer group through the discussion of problems and triumphs in performing the training, and to use a web 2.0 tool as a forum for these activities __Use of Technology__- participants will use an online collaborative web site (either a wiki or wiggio) as a center for editing and sharing documents, training material, videos, power points and new supportive material __Assessment__- participants will be measured by the of number of editing or downloading of material, discussion board activity, number of training sessions performed and number of training participants, the DOL rating system for their centers as a long term feedback and evaluation system
 * 3. Collaborate with your partner. Give feedback in BLUE.

Because I come from a business perspective I am really looking for some feedback on incorporating more educational components into my assessment. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. I am going back to the other sources provided as evaluation guides to continue to develop my assessment. Thanks Jay, A rubric for the discussion board is a must. This gives your participants your expectations as to what you want the conversation to look like. I have attached the rubric we began with for our online student teaching seminar at Drexel. We've condensed it know but you'll see what we started with. Also - you stated that you'll be looking at "number of editing/downloading of material". This is good; but I also think you should look at quality in addition to the quantity. What are they editing? Is the writing meaningful/making connections/higher level thinking? Refer to the rubric I used for our blog entries. There are also many ideas from the Andrew Churches site I provided from this online class session. (Dr. Fritz
