Evaluate instructional material for its intended use

Your questionOpenWhat you can obtain
How should we judge a worksheet, explanation or learning route for its intended readers?HCD.18 - Select or Construct a Characterization and Evaluation Specification for Instructional MaterialA compatible evaluation specification, or a new one tying the audience’s tasks and allowed help to criteria, evidence and the use or repair decision. Use HCD.19 directly when a compatible specification already exists. Stop construction with the usable specification or a precise unresolved criterion.
Does this material support the reader’s task, and what needs repair?HCD.19 - Evaluate Instructional Material through Representative Reader Work and Diagnose Its RepairA supported material contribution, a limiting defect with its affected reach, or a specific criterion or evidence gap. Start with a compatible specification; use HCD.18 only if it is absent or unsuitable. Keep prior knowledge and later help visible when interpreting the first response. Stop at the supported use or repair conclusion.

These two methods judge instructional material. For a person’s performance, transfer or retention, use HCD.11–HCD.13 above. An ordinary professional reference is evaluated for its lookup use unless it also promises instruction.
