NSTD.8:5.6 - Evaluating the learning route

Select the outcome needed for the declared teaching use. Immediate reconstruction, delayed retrieval, discrimination among similar cases and transfer to a new case require different tasks and observations. Success at one does not establish the others. A one-off explanation may need only immediate reconstruction; a course promising durable independent use needs an appropriately delayed and varied task.

Use NSTD.6 with the observer, prior preparation, assistance and reading conditions stated. Keep an author’s walkthrough distinct from an observed learner result.
