Evaluating E-Learning

Techniques for Measuring Performance

To measure on-the-job performance, observe attempts to apply learning to realistic situations. Provide a checklist for scoring the learner’s behavior in a simulated or real application of learning. For example, a sales training course might include a list for scoring a sales interview (figure 5-1).
