What is an Evaluation?

We make choices all the time based on:
- valued judgements
- reviews
- weighing the pros and cons

Evaluation involves assessing the strengths and weaknesses for improvement.

Bloom's Taxonomy
- Knowledge
- Understanding
- Application
- Analysis
- Synthesis
- Evaluation

How Do We Begin?
- Identify what you need to evaluate

- Organise your thoughts
 - Analyse and reflect
- Draw attention to certain points i.e. your strengths and your weaknesses

Do's and Don't's

Do:
- Stick to the subject
- explain why you did something or why you enjoyed or hated something
- qualify and explain your achievements

Don't:
- Say you did something without supporting with some evidence
- leave your evaluation until the last minute: it is a reflection of your experience with the module, make it count.
