Complete Training Evaluation addresses these issues by providing practitioner friendly but academically robust information and guidance on how to evaluate all forms of learning and development. It draws on the author's own multidisciplinary research along with his practical experience of working with private and public sector organisations carrying out evaluation. The book provides practitioners with accessible 'how-to' knowledge and tools to undertake evaluations of both formal and informal learning. Full of case studies and practical examples of application of methods and insights, Complete Training Evaluation equips practitioners with a range of approaches that can be used depending on the training programme, capacity and capability. An online supporting resource includes a bank of evaluation questions grouped around particular aspects of training.

Download or read book Digitalization in Education Developing Tools for Effective Learning and Personalisation of Education written by Manpreet Kaur Bagga and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2024-08-20 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technology-driven trends in the modern society have transformed the ways humans think and communicate. The latest technological artefacts and devices have a profound impact on the forms of interaction between individuals and also significantly influence the process of co construction of knowledge. The COVID pandemic induced experience of remote teaching has significantly contributed to the widespread use of digital technologies in teaching - learning processes, faculty communications, research collaborations, conferences and workshops. The crisis also led to an understanding of the uncertainty of returning to conventional normal and paved way for a new normal ushered by the COVID pandemic. Such transformations create a need for Institutions to prioritize identification of perspective models of digitalization in education (Salmon, 2013). Teachers, teacher educators and policymakers need to collaborate for co-constructing the technology-assisted classroom that will gradually evolve from teaching supplements to pivotal support for creating a personal learning environment (Dabbagh et al., 2021). This article collection aims at examining teachers’ experience in implementation of computer technologies and exploring gaps and challenges in the current academic educational practice with regard to use of digital tools. Various elements of digital environment including online courses, e-resources, virtual and augmented reality, artificial intelligence and robotics have become an integral component of learning and fostering students skills, practical teaching experience and effective professional training . It is imperative that aspects of e education are discussed at the global level in order to stimulate creation of personal learning environments, meet inclusive learning needs, support life-long education and identify relevant digital technologies for upgradation of pedagogical methods and teacher strategies in education.
