ACTION model proposed used to evaluate to evaluate the annual calendar project.

The evaluation concentrated in 3 parts:

Accessibility

Interactivity and User friendless

Teaching and Learning.

Evaluation model & instrument Access: The examiners should evaluate: Do students have an access to the program CD? Are the students equipped with the hardware requirements (computer, speakers, ..etc)? Do students have the supportive software needed to run the program (e.g flash player)? Is the program easy to run and use? This aspect will be best evaluated using students’ survey.

Access:

The examiners should evaluate:

Do students have an access to the program CD?

Are the students equipped with the hardware requirements (computer, speakers, ..etc)?

Do students have the supportive software needed to run the program (e.g flash player)?

Is the program easy to run and use?

This aspect will be best evaluated using students’ survey.

Evaluation model & instrument Teaching and Learning: The examiners should evaluate: Do the instructional approach chosen appropriately to meet the students’ needs? To what extent the program meet the learning objectives? Is the content will adapted to the technology used? How successfully the program develops the students required skills and knowledge? Do the learning materials structured properly to the students’ capabilities? This aspect should be evaluated by achievement test and observation.
