Paper Abstract:
|
The text aims at discussing one of the most controversial subjects of Distance Learning : evaluating students' learning process. After characterizing DL as educational modality, we present a historical view of the evolution of paradigms in evaluation. The third part of the text comprises the evaluation processes of distance learning, punctuating their most frequent difficulties. Taking Michael Moore's concept of " transactional distance" into consideration, it describes the requisites considered necessary for an evaluation of excellence and also devises, through a flow chart, the way it should happen in DL. At last, it exemplifies some evaluation procedures , in synchronous and
non-synchronous situations, having as actors / appraisers the teacher, the system and the student himself. |
