Course Overview

Please note: refer to the Online Learning Design and Delivery Certificate in AC Online for the facilitated, credentialed program.


One of the first steps you took when you started to design your course was to formulate learning outcomes. Now that you have established those outcomes, it is important to find out whether learners are achieving them. This is where assessment and evaluation come in. Module 1 explains the differences and similarities between assessment evaluation – both of which use criteria, certain measures, and are evidence-driven for the purpose of improving learning. You will also learn the principles of good assessment, such as reliability and validity, as well as the importance of engaging in continuous feedback with learning throughout a course or training event.
