Decisions in evaluation: Virtual postgraduate environments, ex post-facto study

Abstract

This research was conducted to analyze the competence of decisions making for learning evaluation matters. The analysis covered both the instructional aspect and the feedback given to assessable activities. Two subjects or courses offered on the online modality for graduate level were analyzed. The New Taxonomy (Marzano and Kendall, 2007) was used as a conceptual framework that permitted the emission of a series of judgments on design and feedback. An ex post-facto study permitted the analysis of tasks, assigned activities and objectives or competencies to fulfill the overall educational goals.
