In the past, I have worked with a professional team, and our dynamic was dysfunctional. This was due to a lack of support from leadership and an actual hierarchy organization. We, as team members, felt less than because of how we were treated and talked to. Our voices that spoke and asked for change, support, and new ideas and suggestions to help better us individually and collectively as a team was not listened to or implemented. When going through our annual reviews with the manager, it was not a conversation. It was a meeting where we were expected to listen. I used my MPP to list my concerns within the organization, leadership, and team, which was not well received. This caused a stressful work environment because I was then concerned that my honesty would cause me to be terminated. Eventually, three months later, I did quit.
In research from Hughes et al. (2018), the Rocket Model is an effective method that leaders use because it is "straightforward and a practical approach to team building." We lacked buy-in, morale, mission/purpose, and goals. We could not buy into what the leadership wanted us to do because there was no instruction, trust, or appreciation for our input to accomplish the tasks. We were all unmotivated and only came to work because we had to pay our bills. We lacked a team structure, each person was self-serving, and we could never align or relate. There was always judgment and complaints. I never found a way to express my concerns without fear after that. Had we effectively been able to, it would have helped our team be successful.

Informative techniques, diagnostic and evaluative measures are more prevalent. They provide
feedback on teacher performance, encouraging educators to develop and alter their training techniques.
They monitor students' success and provide continuing support those educators and teachers can use to
enhance their teaching and students can use to improve their learning. The overarching goal of
formative evaluation is to gather comprehensive data that can be employed to enhance education and
training as it happens. The application of the assessments, such as the essence of a metric, technique, or
self-evaluation, is what distinguishes it as "formative." Summative measures are provided towards the
conclusion of a specific educational period (Arabi, 2020). Besides, they are generally evaluative rather
than diagnostic. They are ideally adapted for evaluating student performance and achievement,
measuring the quality of training strategies, and monitoring progress against development goals.
Assessment is a cyclical method, and it is a never-ending evaluating process. It is constantly
revising and renewing the standard of education it provides. It is a form of evaluation that allows for

Performance management is the process of evaluating how well employees perform their jobs and providing feedback to help them improve. It aims to identify training needs, encourage better performance, and recognize achievements. Effective performance management requires clear objectives, measurable goals, challenges for growth, and support through coaching. Schools use performance management to improve teaching quality and student outcomes by setting teacher priorities and reviewing progress towards school improvement plans.
This document discusses assessment in education. It defines assessment as a systematic process of gathering data on student learning and using it to understand what students know and can do. The goal is to continuously improve student learning outcomes. Effective assessment involves measuring intended learning outcomes, analyzing results, and making changes to instruction or programs based on those results. Assessment should be integrated into daily learning rather than just tests. The document discusses different types of assessment like classroom, performance, portfolios, and rubrics. It also outlines considerations for choosing assessment methods and the importance of assessment for students, teachers, and other stakeholders.

The program evaluation is a viable mechanism that is used in schools that seek to strengthen the quality ofeducation that they offer as well as improving the outcomes of the students. Today, many approaches that are used in the evaluation focus on education and especially about the key features of the program that will be evaluated. This paper will seek to describe the planned approach as it applied in education as well as the rationale for the strategy, description of the question areas and their rationale and finally the stockholders and the reasons they should be involved as well as the ways that can be used in obtaining their involvement.
Description
and Rationale
the Program Evaluation Approach
The Tylerian evaluation approach usually has a significant influence on both evaluation and education. His theory foresaw the concepts that will be used in today`s world in the improvement and multiple as the means of assessment. He defined the objectives as a way for the teachers to explain what they wanted to teach in the classes(Posavac, 2015). Through stating the goals in terms of what the students should do, Tyler believed that the teachers should plan more on their curricula so that they can be able to achieve more. Tyler eventually defined the program evaluation approach as a process of determining how best one is achieving its objectives (Jacobs, 2017). In the evaluation process, one should consider the following steps; establishment of the broad goals as well as the objectives, classifying the goals, define the objectives in terms of behavior, finding situation in which the achievement of the targets can be shown, development of the required measurement techniques, collecting the performance data and eventually compare the performance of the data with the behaviors that have been stated in the objectives.
Description of the
Question and their Rationale
Some of the description questions that can be asked on the process are why is there a discrepancy?
The discrepancy in education is the model that is usually used in the determination of whether a child is eligible for education. It usually refers to the mismatch between the child`s intellectual ability and their progres.
How school leadership teams guide their schools’ continuous improvement
And how Coaches and Capacity Builders support their work
School improvement is typically driven by a school-based leadership team. Scrutiny of student learning data informs their decisions and plans. An annual school improvement plan is their primary roadmap. The plan is created and followed for a year, then the cycle starts again. These plans begin by addressing specific subgroups of students and subject areas where the annual assessment shows weakness. The goal is to improve the scores that are low.
An introduction to evaluation and feedback. This slide deck covers basic concepts every person engaged with designing evaluation or feedback systems for training should be familiar with. I gave this presentation to MBA students in Iqra University as a guest speaker in 2018. Hopefully, it could be useful for more people.

Role on standarized and non standarized test in guidance on counselingUmaRani841531
Standardized and non-standardized tests can both be used to develop student profiles and provide guidance. Standardized tests assess student achievement against a benchmark and allow comparisons between students. They are limited in describing individual student needs. Non-standardized tests like portfolios, interviews, and projects are created by teachers and better measure individual performance and learning. Both types of tests can be used for accountability if they inform teaching and show student progress over time.
The best Evaluation of training {updated 2023].docxintel-writers.com
The evaluation of training
refers to the process of assessing the effectiveness and impact of a training program or initiative. It involves gathering data and information to determine whether the training has met its
objectives, how well participants have learned and applied the knowledge and skills, and the overall value and return on investment (ROI) of the training.
The best evaluation of training is a comprehensive and systematic approach that considers multiple factors and uses various evaluation methods
some key elements that contribute to the best evaluation of training:
1. Clear Objectives: The evaluation should align with the specific objectives of the training program. Clear and measurable objectives help determine what needs to be assessed and provide a benchmark for evaluating the success of the training.
2. Multiple Evaluation Methods: Using a combination of evaluation methods provides a more comprehensive picture of the training’s effectiveness. Common evaluation methods include pre- and post-training assessments, observation of performance, surveys, interviews, focus groups, and feedback from supervisors or peers.
3. Relevance and Alignment: The evaluation should assess the extent to which the training content and delivery align with the participants’ needs and job requirements. It should determine if the training has addressed the intended knowledge and skill gaps and contributed to improved performance in the workplace.
The document discusses different types of curriculum evaluation including formative, summative, and diagnostic evaluation. Formative evaluation takes place during curriculum implementation to improve instruction and learning, identifies issues early, and helps future planning. Summative evaluation occurs at the end to assess learning and is used for decision making. Diagnostic evaluation identifies prerequisite knowledge and interests at the beginning. All three types provide benefits like remediating weaknesses, guiding placement decisions, and enhancing teaching and learning.
This document discusses training evaluation in an organizational context. It outlines the purposes of training evaluation, which include identifying areas for modification and gaining information on needed changes. Principles of effective training are provided, such as clear objectives, organized material, and practice. The document also describes different types of training evaluation, including formative, process, outcome, and impact evaluation. Methods of evaluating training discussed include questionnaires, tests, interviews, and measuring performance and organizational metrics. Feedback is important to identify causes of any differences between expected and actual outcomes. Overall, regular evaluation of training programs and techniques is necessary to establish their effectiveness for the organization and individuals.
This document discusses assessment for and of learning. It outlines the importance of formative assessment and having a balanced assessment system. Formative assessment has been shown to improve student achievement when implemented properly, through practices like providing feedback and developing self-assessment skills. The document outlines seven strategies for formative assessment, focusing on clarifying learning targets, determining students' current level of understanding, and helping them to close gaps in their knowledge. Clear learning targets are essential for effective assessment.

1) Assessment should be an integral part of the teaching and learning process to provide feedback and help students improve.
2) Students should be involved in assessing their own work and teachers should provide clear guidance on how students can improve.
3) The focus of assessment should be on learning and progress, not just grading or comparing students.
Evaluation Of Evaluation And Performance MeasurementAmanda Burkett
Here are some key points to consider in developing an effective performance evaluation process:
- Define clear evaluation criteria that are relevant to the job. Common criteria include quality and quantity of work, skills/abilities, problem-solving, initiative, teamwork, communication, reliability, etc.
- Gather feedback from multiple perspectives like supervisors, peers, direct reports, and customers. However, be aware of potential biases. The supervisor's evaluation usually carries the most weight.
- Use objective, specific examples and observations rather than general opinions to support ratings. Avoid vague terms open to interpretation.
- Evaluate employees against defined performance standards rather than comparing to others. Curves can demotivate some performers.
- Conduct evaluations periodically
1. Formative assessment is key to raising student achievement by providing feedback to teachers and students to modify teaching and learning activities.
2. There are five key strategies of formative assessment: sharing learning expectations; questioning; feedback; self-assessment; and peer assessment.
3. These strategies include clarifying learning targets, using effective questioning techniques, and providing feedback that helps students improve.
Ch. 13 designing and conducting summative evaluationsEzraGray1
The document discusses summative evaluation, which determines whether instruction meets expectations. It has two phases: expert judgement to evaluate instructional quality, and impact analysis to assess skill transfer. Unlike formative evaluation which improves instruction, summative evaluation makes decisions about maintaining, adopting, or adapting instruction using external evaluators unfamiliar with instruction. Instructional designers make good summative evaluators due to understanding instructional design criteria.
The document discusses key concepts related to teaching, learning, and assessment. It provides definitions and explanations of important terms like objectives, outcomes, assessment, evaluation, formative and summative assessment, and direct and indirect assessment methods. It emphasizes that the primary purpose of assessment is to improve student learning and that assessment should be connected to learning objectives and used to evaluate and enhance teaching, learning, and programs.

Before the Employee Training
In a Mid-Western university, the Director of Human Resource Development (HRD) created a new employee training series for supervisory staff members. She began the needs assessment process with focus groups that included both prospective participants and supervisors to identify the key skills and ideas needed from the training.
She consulted with outside experts to determine employee training content. She observed employee training programs and met with other university HRD Directors to compare notes before developing the employee training. She formed a university-wide advisory committee to review and assist with the employee training design and delivery.
Then, working with internal and external training and development vendors, she developed the objective-based employee training sessions. Managers of trainees are required to attend an initial meeting which introduces the employee training session content. These meetings also teach participants the role of the manager in supporting the training efforts. Gradually, more and more managers are attending the complete training as well.
During the Employee Training
She piloted sessions with the first couple of employee training groups in a classroom setting. Sessions were redesigned based on feedback. Trainers present relevant examples and activities during the sessions.
The participants fill out multi-page evaluations that provide feedback about content, learning, and the effectiveness of the sessions. These are due within a week and not required at the end of the session so participants have time for thoughtful review.
After the Employee Training
Training redesign is an ongoing process based on feedback.
A couple of months after the sessions, the HRD Director meets with employees who participated to assess their satisfaction and learning transfer over time. She also meets with their supervisors to assess whether the employees are applying the skills in the workplace. She is working to provide actual testing and 360 degree feedback to strengthen the training transfer component of the employee training program.

In a Mid-Western university, the Director of Human Resource Development (HRD) created a new employee training series for supervisory staff members. She began the needs assessment process with focus groups that included both prospective participants and supervisors to identify the key skills and ideas needed from the training.
She consulted with outside experts to determine employee training content. She observed employee training programs and met with other university HRD Directors to compare notes before developing the employee training. She formed a university-wide advisory committee to review and assist with the employee training design and delivery.
Then, working with internal and external training and development vendors, she developed the objective-based employee training sessions. Managers of trainees are required to attend an initial meeting which introduces the employee training session content. These meetings also teach participants the role of the manager in supporting the training efforts. Gradually, more and more managers are attending the complete training as well.
During the Employee Training
She piloted sessions with the first couple of employee training groups in a classroom setting. Sessions were redesigned based on feedback. Trainers present relevant examples and activities during the sessions.
The participants fill out multi-page evaluations that provide feedback about content, learning, and the effectiveness of the sessions. These are due within a week and not required at the end of the session so participants have time for thoughtful review.
After the Employee Training
Training redesign is an ongoing process based on feedback.
A couple of months after the sessions, the HRD Director meets with employees who participated to assess their satisfaction and learning transfer over time. She also meets with their supervisors to assess whether the employees are applying the skills in the workplace. She is working to provide actual testing and 360 degree feedback to strengthen the training transfer component of the employee training program.

evaluation of performence appraisal INFINITY CREATIONS 2016saikrishnabachuwar
This document discusses performance appraisal and employee performance management. It begins by defining organizational effectiveness and the importance of evaluating employee performance. It then discusses the need for performance appraisal systems to provide feedback, identify high and low performers, and facilitate compensation decisions. The objectives and scope of performance appraisal are outlined, along with the methodology, data sources, and chapter plan for the study. Key differences between annual performance appraisals and ongoing performance management processes are explained. Typical outcomes of annual appraisals like misdirected bonuses and poor development are contrasted with improved communication, goal alignment, and employee development under performance management.
This document discusses training and development in organizations. It defines training and outlines some of the key challenges in training employees. The training process involves assessing needs, establishing objectives, delivering training through various methods, and evaluating the effectiveness of training. The goal of training is to improve employee competency and organizational performance by providing skills or correcting performance deficiencies. Evaluating training impact through pre- and post-testing can determine if learning objectives and desired behavior changes were achieved.

GuidelinesPaper is based on one novel , Frankenstein. We ha.docxJeanmarieColbert3
Guidelines
Paper is based on one novel ,
Frankenstein
. We have
learned that one element crucial to horror stories is a monster. After reading the
entire novel , you will write a two- to three-page paper analyzing whether Victor Frankenstein or the
creation is the true monster in the novel.
You must pick one. Then state three
reasons/actions why he is the monster.
DO NOT:
o
Claim they are both monsters
o
Claim that neither is
o
Claim that there is no monster because Victor is hallucinating, has
a split personality, is dreaming, etc.
o
Claim that the real monster is abstract/philosophical--narcissism,
society, nature vs. nurture, etc
These are all innovative and great and may make a great essay but that's not
the assignment.
You must make a claim that Victor is the true monster
OR his creation is the true monster and support your claim.
Even though it is your interpretation of who the monster is, when you write
academic essays, you are really asserting a claim and attempting to convince
readers to agree with your stance. To do this effectively, it’s best to create a
more objective tone, pulling back on personal statements and writing in terms of
what Shelley intended and how readers in general perceive/infer the information.
In other words, avoid statements like: “I think the monster is really Victor
Frankenstein.” And use statements like: “After careful analysis of Shelley’s
characters, readers agree that Victor is the true monster of the novel.” Also, a
major pitfall to avoid: Do not claim that the monster is Victor then focus on the
creation in the body of the essay and why the creation is not the monster.
Throughout the semester, I have been posing questions on the Discussion Board
that you have been responsible for. You were then required in some weeks to
respond to a peer’s answers. The purpose of this is to cultivate interaction among
peers as you are working in such solitude when in an online environment.
However, I know that it is hard to routinely read a lot of what your peers have to
say. So this second paper is the one opportunity for you to truly HEAR several
angles of a discussion, much like in a traditional classroom, and assimilate the
opinions of your classmates.
For the essay, after you first come to your own observation about who the true
monster is then read through a handful of each of the four
Frankenstein
discussion threads (Storyline Shift, Victor Frankenstein, The Creation, and
Frankenstein Finale). Find a few posts that support your observation. You do not
need to read through all of the posts for each thread but read through enough to
help inform your selection. Throughout your essay you will need to
include at
least three quotes from two different threads (one per body
paragraph/reason).
These quotes need to support your claim. In other words, if
you claim that Victor is the monster, don’t include a quote by a peer that focuses
on the monster’s compassion. Also, be.

I have been in the classroom for over 12 years, and every day I learn something new. Every day I encounter a new student or discover something new about a student in my class that has been there the whole year. Every encounter is different, every child is different, and not one child thinks the same or learns the same. I discovered this early on in my teaching career, but I am constantly reminded how we cannot take for granted streamlined teaching in the classroom.
Teachers are not the only ones who teach in the classroom, the students in your classroom teach each other and teach you the teacher how to explain something differently and view things differently and reach the same destination to answer the same question correctly. I believe that being an effective teacher one must get to know students on a personal level. Not by reading their folders at the beginning of the year, but by asking open ended questions, listening to how they respond and how they express themselves either verbally or written expression. Teachers need to listen to their students not just hear them and move on, but take the child as a whole and help them reach another level in their education journey.
Special education is more than just accommodations; it is accommodating children to their needs and finding what works for them. Some need verbal cues to know that they are doing well and motivate them to keep working towards success, while others need positive written expression to push them over the hump and work to accomplish their goals. Most children with learning disabilities suffer from low self esteem and act up or become the class clown are constantly in trouble. They become the trouble makers or the ones always in trouble for not completing homework assignments, and because teachers only see this on the surface they push them off to one side of the classroom. What most general education teachers don’t see is how much they are asking for help.
Education should be used to empower every student and every teacher. Being an educator is more than just teaching to a test, it is planting the seed of enjoying the love for learning. We need to remember that we are educating our future.

Improved teaching means teachers were taught to teach on more of a professional level by actual people qualified to teach. Normal schools broadened their curricula to the training of secondary school teachers, requirement of the completion of high school to be admitted to college for teacher training, teachers must have a bachelor’s degree. “High school completion was seldom required for admission, and the majority of instructors did not hold a college degree themselves.” (Diener, 2008). Society has come a long way when it comes to teaching, and who is qualified to teach. Higher education is required more than ever in today’s society, and all of these examples have helped with the success of the way teachers complete their degrees today.
When it comes to teaching in the 21
st
century, full time teachers are required to have a minimum of a four year bachelor’s degree. Technology helps play a role in the success of teachers and students in and out of the classroom. Like the rest of the class we are all completing our degree in an online program. When it comes to teaching in the classroom teachers can use computers and other devices to help children excel, and outside of the classroom, the students can utilize the internet to help them with projects, and even communicate with other students to help with projects.

Teacher training is very important for teachers because they should be able to teach multiple subjects and be qualified in what they are teaching. Strengthening of the normal school curriculum and standards was needed in order for the school system to get better. In the 1900's schools exploded from 50 to almost 350, but with the low academic levels, teacher and students were not able to teach or learn at a college level. Teachers did not have, at this point, a college degree themselves. As the population kept increases and there was a higher demand for education, everyone began to need a high school diploma to be admitted for a college degree.
University enter teacher training: "Teacher training at the college or university level, typically consisted of one or two courses in the "science and art" of teaching, had been offered at a limited number of institutions as early as the 1830s, and the universities had always been institutions for the education of those who taught in the Latin grammar schools, academies, and high schools" (Webb, 2014).
This did not qualify them as teachers when they took these courses, but it did make them becom.

The biggest negative experience that I have had is with a previous employer, and it was my first day as a preschool teacher in a facility nearby. On my first day, I walked into a situation that made a huge impact on the way I viewed this facility. When I started that day, I was told that I would not be in “my classroom” that I would be filling in for a teacher that was out that day. I didn’t have an issue with that fact and was actually up for the challenge. But when I entered the classroom I noticed there were no rules, no structure, no lesson plans and the classroom was complete chaos. I managed to create some spur of the moment lessons and engaged in music as much as possible. Then when it was time for lunch, and I went to serve it, it was pure sugar and very unhealthy. I left for the day feeling defeated, tired, frustrated and stressed and nowhere to turn. I expressed my concerns throughout the day along with a lot of severe health issues to the owner and was brushed off. I care a lot about the children’s safety and their learning environment, and I felt like I was drowning. Needless to say, I ended up moving on from that position because I felt helpless and without a direction to improve anything.
I have had several positive experiences throughout my educational background. The classrooms were always welcoming, warm and inviting and it showed that the teachers cared about their classrooms and their students. Those classrooms made me excited about becoming a teacher and gave me something to work towards in the future.
“The foundation for successful learning and a safe and secure classroom climate is the relationship that teachers develop with their students (Sousa, Tomlinson, 2011)”. The teacher-student relationship is something that should be built on from day one. If the students do not trust or know you, they will feel uneasy and unsafe in the classroom environment. It is so important to form the relationship with your students to ensure communication and safety of your students. Another way to provide a positive learning environment is with your attitude. If you have a positive and fun attitude, it will show through your lessons and your students will enjoy being in your class every day which will affect how they learn. Lastly, the organization is a big key to a positive and stimulating learning environment. If your classroom is packed full of stuff or the students, do not know where materials are it can cause frustrations for you and your students.
I firmly believe there are no stupid questions! I want to ensure my stude.

When preparing for this week’s discussion post I was a little at awe, I personally had never heard of the little rock nine. And I’m not that far from Arkansas. The Little Rock Nine was a group of nine African American students that were enrolled in Little Rock Central High School in 1957. However, their enrollment was engaged by the Little Rock Crisis. Which the students were initially prevented from entering the racially segregated school by Orval Faubus, the Governor of Arkansas. When President Dwight D. Eisenhower done an intervention, the students were then allowed to attend the school. The nine students were Ernest Green, Elizabeth Eckford, Jefferson Thomas, Terrance Roberts, Thelma Mothershed, and Melba Pattillo Beals. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Little_Rock_Nine)
Personally, if I was in the situation that these nine students experienced I would have been lost, afraid, and felt like something was wrong with me. A child of any race should not have to be put in this situation to feel unwanted or that they are unwelcome because they are of a different color. Many times however that is not the case. And this was the case for these nine children. My reaction would have been a sense of sadness, and anger. I don’t believe I would not have made a seen, simply out of fear of being hurt. I would have wanted to stand up for myself as well as my peers of the same color. Nowadays, if the situation would arise that an African American child was not allowed into a while school, yes I would stand up. And voice my opinion. It should not matter the color of a child’s skin. They should be allowed to receive the proper education. Without first having to go through turmoil. This situation I’m sure was emotionally devastating for these nine children. Who simply just wanted to get an education. (Webb. L. D. (2014). History of American education: Voices and perspectives. San Diego, CA: Bridgepoint Education, Inc.)
De facto segregation, I believe does not have a detrimental effect on students nowadays. Some adults that were raised to racial, still are. But if children are taught not to be that way. Then most of the time children learn to except another student of a different minority. Where I live we have a lot of white and minority students. Which none are treated differently. They are all in school for the same reason to get an education. My own personal beliefs are we are all children of God, and just because we are different races, does not mean.

What is inclusion?
Inclusion is an educational environment in which all students are grouped together in the same classroom regardless of their intelligence level hence the phrase used, “Least Restrictive Environment”. This practice means that an increasing number of regular classroom teachers are called upon to teach exceptional children in regular classrooms, sometimes also termed inclusive classrooms (LeFrançois, G. 2011).
IDEA was established for children with learning disabilities and has been mandated as a part of every educational facility.
As defined by the American Psychological Association, “The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) ensures that all children with disabilities are entitled to a free appropriate public education to meet their unique needs and prepare them for further education, employment, and independent living.”
Not every student learns equally; however, every student should be given the equal opportunity to do so regardless of their learning abilities. With that, inclusion provides an environment where not only students will learn together, but regular students will respect and build friendships with students with learning disabilities. While I never had the change to experience this firsthand, this type of environment will enhance friendships and students helping one another. I think that when a child is included in something, their self confidence improves and they will strive to work harder.
Second, inclusion allows students to understand one another and learn from each other as far as customs and courtesies and attitudes. Students are vulnerable to imitate what they see whether it be good or bad. According to the text, one of the benefits of inclusion is the learning of socially appropriate behaviors by students with disabilities as a result of modeling the behavior of other students.
Lastly, inclusive classrooms provide students with learning disabilities access to general learning like the rest of their peers. They will learn the same information instead of the curriculum being adjusted which may omit valuable information. In this case, these students may be learning information that could be too easy depending on where they stand knowledge wise. For others, the adjustment may hinder learning more challenging information some could be ready for.

1. Frances Raines
In the past, I have worked with a professional team, and our
dynamic was dysfunctional. This was due to a lack of support
from leadership and an actual hierarchy organization. We, as
team members, felt less than because of how we were treated
and talked to. Our voices that spoke and asked for change,
support, and new ideas and suggestions to help better us
individually and collectively as a team was not listened to or
implemented. When going through our annual reviews with the
manager, it was not a conversation. It was a meeting where we
were expected to listen. I used my MPP to list my concerns
within the organization, leadership, and team, which was not
well received. This caused a stressful work environment
because I was then concerned that my honesty would cause me
to be terminated. Eventually, three months later, I did quit.
In research from Hughes et al. (2018), the Rocket Model is an
effective method that leaders use because it is "straightforward
and a practical approach to team building." We lacked buy-in,
morale, mission/purpose, and goals. We could not buy into what
the leadership wanted us to do because there was no instruction,
trust, or appreciation for our input to accomplish the tasks. We
were all unmotivated and only came to work because we had to
2. pay our bills. We lacked a team structure, each person was self-
serving, and we could never align or relate. There was always
judgment and complaints. I never found a way to express my
concerns without fear after that. Had we effectively been able
to, it would have helped our team be successful.
Plan Learner Assessments

Informative techniques, diagnostic and evaluative measures are
more prevalent. They provide
feedback on teacher performance, encouraging educators to
develop and alter their training techniques.
They monitor students' success and provide continuing support
those educators and teachers can use to
enhance their teaching and students can use to improve their
learning. The overarching goal of
formative evaluation is to gather comprehensive data that can be
employed to enhance education and
training as it happens. The application of the assessments, such
3. as the essence of a metric, technique, or
self-evaluation, is what distinguishes it as "formative."
Summative measures are provided towards the
conclusion of a specific educational period (Arabi, 2020).
Besides, they are generally evaluative rather
than diagnostic. They are ideally adapted for evaluating student
performance and achievement,
measuring the quality of training strategies, and monitoring
progress against development goals.
Assessment is a cyclical method, and it is a never-ending
evaluating process. It is constantly
revising and renewing the standard of education it provides. It
is a form of evaluation that allows for
continuous improvement in the learning phase. The cyclical
method employs attainable objectives and
expectations for the students. It involves a four-step process
which is: plan, do check, and act. The
cyclical techniques have been employed and have proven to be
more productive and effective by
educators. Its effectiveness is a result of the essence that i t
gives continual growth in the learning
process.
The main objective of the training on the staff, inclusive of the
supervisors, is to learn the
4. expected leadership roles. It will also ensure that the activity
provides an understanding of the needs for
teamwork between the administration and the employees. The
staffs also need to learn the skills
necessary for customer service. The assessments will ensure
that all these skills are reached because
there will be a positive working environment through
communication and listening skills. It can only be
achieved by establishing positive attitudes towards work and the
attainment of set goals and objectives.
Need to be more explicit with the objectives. Check out this
resource that talks about the ABCD framework for writing
objectives:
https://lib.guides.umd.edu/c.php?g=598357&p=4144007
1
These objectives were selected based on the significant issues
that were affecting the company. The
results of the leadership training would be to create cohesion
between the supervisors and the
employees.
A formative assessment entails a wide variety of methods used
by the instructors to carry out in-
5. process evaluations on the learner's comprehension, learning
needs, and the educational process.
Through the assessments, the teachers help identify the
student's concepts where they determine
where the learner is struggling to understands or the skills that
the learner has not yet acquired.
Formative assessment
Since the training involves supervisors within the company and
not young student learners in
the classroom, the best appropriate formative assessment tool is
anonymous voting. It is similar to
impromptu quizzes that are employed in the school. Sometimes
it is hard to tell whether the earners are
keeping up with the materials. Since we're working with people,
some of them can be unable to express
their reservations. Running a short survey halfway through the
training will help them gauge how well
the students appreciate the material and change the movement
accordingly (Gómez-Gasquet et al.,
2018).
The strategy that will be used to implement polling in the
classroom will influence the poll
questions. The questions will ensure that it focuses on the
6. intended array and the trainer gets the
intended information. Based on what was covered in the specific
training questions, the trainer can
develop a poll question that requires the staff to remember more
than the previously acquired
information (Conley et al., 2017). Here is an example of the
questions to be used in the polling.
How would you evaluate the overall training experience you had
with the trainer through the
training program?
Excellent
Good
Fair
Poor
Very poor
The questions will include questions that will focus on the
specific topic covered through the
training session. Using the feedback collected, the trainer would
refocus the training to meet the weak
areas highlighted through the anonymous voting. The weak
spots would be determined by how the
7. largest population voted. If most of the training responded fair,
poor, and very poor, then the training
session would be redone and the training strategy modified or
changed.
Summative assessment
A summative evaluation is used towards the conclusion of the
learning period to measure
student learning and academic success by applying the outcomes
to a standard norm. Summative tests
have a high point benefit when they occur in a supervised
environment with greater clarity (Ghosh,
2020). Once the training curriculum has been delivered, the
trainees will be questioned for their
thoughts and perform a summative evaluation. The main
intention is to evaluate the attitude and the
information that they learned through the training program. It
will also be used to determine how the
info provided will be used back on the job.
A. Evaluate the content learned through this session?
Very dissatisfied
Not satisfied
8. Neutral
Satisfied
Very satisfied
B. Can you explain to your peers what you learned in this
session with ease?
Definitely
Probably
Possibly
Probably not
Definitely not
The summative evaluate the overall impact or effectiveness of
the training program. It
would provide feedback to the trainer about where the training
had any effect on the trainees’
skills and knowledge. The trainer would compare these results
against the traditional value and
determine if the trainees made adequate progress or met the
expected standard.
But this is mainly self-report here - asking the learner about the
quality of the training. A summative assessment will need to
actually assess whether or not the learning that we said would
9. take place, actually did. So, a test, or an observation might be
appropriate here.

Construct Learning Goals, Outcomes, and Objectives

Training Needs
2
11. Based on the need for instruction identified in week 2, it was
determined that there was a
disconnect between the newly promoted supervisors and the
working staff. The outcome was the rise in
consumer complaints about service quality. Thus, based on the
analysis, the learners are the ne wly
promoted supervisors as they cannot accomplish their
responsibilities of ensuring their subordinates
produce results. The lack of cohesion supports the notion as the
supervisors are reported to scold
employees and forcing them to work on the set goals and
objectives.
The objective of the training is to learn the expected leadership
roles; it is essential as it has
direct implications on the organization's overall performance.
The statement refers to the effectiveness
of employees and the achievement of the company’s goals and
objectives. Therefore, the outcome of
the leadership training would be better cohesion between the
supervisors and employees. The unity
would be achieved by ensuring the supervisors understand the
importance of effective communication
and listening skills as well as having a positive attitude. The
learning objectives were selected based on
12. the key issues facing the company’s approach to management.
Overall, the analysis of the training needs demonstrated the
need for teamwork between the
administration and employees. It can only be achieved through
effective communication and listening
skills and the development of positive working environments.
The latter is achieved by establishing
positive attitudes towards work and the accomplishment of set
goals and objectives.
My question here would be why are the supervisors the learners
and not the staff? Wouldn't we want the staff to learn the skills
necessary for customer service? If supervisors are the "learner"
here, then the skills/tasks would be focused on leadership,
which may or may not impact "service quality".

13. At my previous employer, the Human Resources Director had
been with the company for over 20 years. He had been promoted
several times from lower-level positions into the director
position. So, he understood a lot of the human resource
department. About 8 years when he was promoted to director, he
hired a human resources manager to replace his former position.
She had never been in a management position before. And it
showed. Shortly after she came on board, another long-time HR
employee put her notice in. Stating that she couldn’t work with
the new manager. About a year later another fifteen-year HR
employee put her notice in. Stating the same. As time went on,
more and more production employees started complaining about
the new HR manager. And her lack of empathy for any
employee concern brought to her attention.
Out of the eight components listed, I would say
talent was a key factor in this case. The human resources
director should not have hired this person as the human resource
manager. She is lacking the vital skills needed to perform her
job. Another that comes to mind is power. Not only is she not
equipped to handle the position. But she lets the power of her
position, cloud her judgment when working with others. There
is such a thing as being cohesive in a team. There will be times
when employees don’t agree. But that doesn’t mean you berate
them because they are in a subordinate position. This is key to
being a great leader, anyone who lives by do as I say and not as
I do has no place in management.

LEADERS
14. Virtuous
Mark Brooker • Jeffrey W. Boyce
56 THE DeVoe REPORT | IWU
rganizations
orld business leaders have
emerged as the first global
citizens. Engaged in commerce,
business leaders understand
the interdependence of nations,
and that the health of society and
the preservation of our earth are
important to the future prosperity of the business
enterprise. Business fosters economic and cultural
interdependence and has helped to create the
awareness of one humanity, on one planet, all sharing
a common fate. And, as the dominant institution on the
planet, business holds the key to the transformation
of our global society, away from intractable problems,
and toward a world that works for everyone.
Around the globe we are witnessing a fundamental
questioning, both individual and institutional, of
our most basic assumptions about who we are, the
world we live in, and what is ultimately important.
Increasingly, the leading thinkers of our day are
describing this phenomenon as being driven by an
emerging new paradigm—a new understanding of
15. reality—which is shaking our traditional assumptions
and intuitions to the roots. The World Business
Academy (http://worldbusiness.org/) arose out of
the conviction that the shape of the future is our
choice, and that business, if it adopts a new tradition
of responsibility for the whole, can be the major
contributor to a future that is economically, socially,
and ecologically viable for all.
Yet the question remains as to how and to whom
businesses will be held accountable. Secularists
respond that the answer is clearly government. Yet
the Christian knows that governments, despite their
God appointed role, are made of people, and absent
the influence of God, are just as vulnerable to sin,
corruption, and oppression as any business
(1 Chronicles 14:7).
The answer to the question then lies in recognizing
that businesses and business leaders are ultimately
answerable to God, not man and that He calls us
to lead our organizations in an ethical and virtuous
manner that glorifies and honors both God and man.
IWU | THE DeVoe REPORT 57
WHY VIRTUOUS BUSINESS?
Recently, there has been a lot of debate about the actual
objective of “the organization.” In the Western World, the
prevalent view over the last decades has been that its
objective was maximizing shareholder value above any
other consideration. In other words, the HOW, (whether or
not a company is virtuous in accomplishing objectives),
16. did not matter. As such, employees, managers and society
were simply considered as means to reach this “superior”
objective. Virtues were off the corporate radar, and business
ethics were, at most, something to comply with.
But more recently, research is now recognizing that the
HOW does matter. Pawar (2016) showed a relationship
between workplace spirituality and employee performance.
Caldwell and Hayes (2016) argued that values-based leaders
were more effective, and Yaacoub (2016) demonstrated a
relationship between values and long-term sustainability.
Business ethics is now a required subject in business
programs (ACBSP, 2016) and business is under increasing
scrutiny from both the marketplace and governments.
Character, it seems, does count.
Numerous leadership models have been developed to
help promote leadership and organizational effectiveness.
First on the scene in leadership history was the Great
Man Theory which viewed great leaders to be men of
greatness. Trait theory came into being when birthright was
questioned as being the only source for great leaders. The
next leadership theory to happen on the historical scene
was behavioral theory. Contingency theory holds that the
leader needs to alter his or her approach, calling upon a
particular leadership style to fit the situation. Transactional
theory provides that people are motivated by punishment
and reward and that central authority, power, and decision
making resides with the leader. Lastly, transformational
theory seeks to bring balance to the power relationship
between the leader and those who follow. Community
and cooperation are hallmarks of this leadership theory
(Northouse, 2016).
A major disadvantage of these models is that they do
not have a Christian perspective inherent in its framework.
17. Many of these models identify excellent means for developing
ethical leaders based on the concepts of character,
competence, and actions, but without first having a central
focus on God, such models and theories—no matter how
good—fall short of God’s ideal aim for us. For without
God as our central focus, “all our righteous acts are like
permanently stained rags” (Isaiah 64:6 GW).
In addition, static models driven by rules tend to be less
effective in fast changing times. Models that are based on
principles, particularly the timeless principals of scripture,
provide tools that can then be applied to the changing
environments business experience today.
The DeVoe School of Business saw a need to merge
the best secular leadership theories and models with
the wisdom of Scripture and has developed the Virtuous
Business Model to aid in kingdom-based leadership and
organizational effectiveness development. The model
describes both the virtuous leader and the virtuous
organization; its value’s based approach works even in the
tumultuous times facing business today.
WHAT IS VIRTUE?
Virtue, by definition, is the moral excellence of a person.
A morally excellent person has a character made-up of
virtues valued as good. He or she is honest, respectful,
courageous, forgiving, and kind, for example. Because
of these virtues or positive character traits, he or she is
committed to doing the right thing no matter what the
personal cost, and does not bend to impulses, urges or
desires, but acts according to values and principles. Some
might say that good qualities are innate and developed
through good parenting, which they are, but we are not
perfect. Virtues need to be cultivated to become more
18. prevalent and habitual in daily life. With the habit of being
more virtuous, we take the helm of our own life, redirecting
its course towards greater fulfillment, peace, and joy .For
the Christian leader, Christ is at the center of all that is done,
and one’s will seeks to align with God’s—to prayerfully live
out the words, “Thy will be done.” Living virtuously is more
than “living the good life”; it is seeking to achieve an “on-
earth-as-it-is-in-heaven” way of living here and now (Comte-
Sponville, 1996/trans. 2001).
58 THE DeVoe REPORT | IWU
THE DEVOE MODEL OF
VIRTUOUS BUSINESS
The DeVoe Model of Virtuous Business is based upon the
“Be-Know-Do” (BKD) model of leadership development,
which has been used by the US Army for more than 50
years. The holistic notion of BKD is grasped and intuitively
recognizable by Christians because of its similar construct
with Scripture references to body, mind, and soul. “Love
the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and
with all your strength” (Deuteronomy 6:5 GNT).
The model recognizes that we not only have three aspects
of virtue (being, knowing, and doing), but also three domains
in which we interact with the world around us. The virtuous
leader interacts in the spiritual, personal, and professional
domains; the virtuous organization interacts by building
spiritual, social, and economic capital.
The center of all things, and particularly any model of
virtue, is Jesus Christ. Jesus is the example of virtuous
leadership and an understanding of virtue comes from
19. studying the characteristics of Jesus in Scripture. Scripture
also explains that just as God is three in one, mankind has
been created with mind, body, and soul. The corresponding
domains with the virtuous leader model are personal,
professional, and spiritual.
SPIRITUAL DOMAIN – CHARACTER, CRITICAL
THINKER, COURAGEOUS
The spiritual domain fulfills the same role in the virtuous
leader that our soul does to the tri-part man. It provides our
connection to both God and man and from the perspective
of eternity, represents true currency that can be stored up
in heaven. The three characteristics of the virtuous leader
in the spiritual domain are character (be), critical thinker
(know), and courageous (do). Character is developed by
becoming Christ-like; critical thinking is learned by study
and practice; and courage by stepping out in faith into the
unknown.
PERSONAL DOMAIN – RESPECTFUL, RELATIONAL,
RECONCILING
The personal domain corresponds with our mind and to
what we know. It also speaks to our mental attributes. The
three characteristics of the virtuous leader in the personal
domain are respectful (be), relational (know), and reconciling
(do). Respect begins with the fear and knowledge of God,
but includes respecting all people as created in the image
of God. Relational is the product of valuing people above
all other things; and reconciling is the ministry to which God
has called all believers; that is, reconciling God to man, man
to each other, and man to God’s creation.
PROFESSIONAL DOMAIN -INTEGRITY, INSPIRATIONAL,
INCLUSIVE
20. The professional domain corresponds with our body and
to how we act towards others. The three characteristics of
the virtuous leader in the professional domain are integrity
(be), inspirational (know), and inclusive (do). Leaders above
all must have integrity, be able to inspire, and seek to
include all of God’s creative masterwork, the human race, in
the work of business.
Organizations are groups of individuals collaborating
to accomplish tasks that could not be accomplished
individually. While virtuous leadership is essential for the
virtuous organization, a lack of understanding of the role
of business in God’s Word can lead to organizations that
are not kingdom building. The virtuous organization is
one that builds spiritual, social, and economic capital.
Spiritual capital is built through being centered, creative,
and compassionate. Social capital is about being sincere,
supportive, and service orientated. Economic capital is built
by being principled, proficient, and profound.
SPIRITUAL CAPITAL –
CENTERED, CREATIVE,
COMPASSIONATE
Spiritual capital is about having the right priorities; it is not
about profit, it is about people. While profit is necessary to
survive, the purpose is about people and includes a clear
IWU | THE DeVoe REPORT 59
sense of corporate values, providing comfort and strength
in meeting the challenges of life. Virtuous organizations
are as dedicated to building spiritual capital as they are to
21. social and economic capital. The three characteristics of the
virtuous organization related to building spiritual capital are
being centered on Christ (be), creative in problem solving
(know), and compassionate to those in need (do).
SOCIAL CAPITAL –
SINCERE, SYNERGETIC,
AND SERVICE
Social capital is about authenticity, synergy, and meeting
needs. The virtuous organization is transparent, unites
individual peoples and skills in ways the promote creativity
and innovation, and serves the people of its marketplace.
The three characteristics of the virtuous organization related
to building social capital are being sincere (be), synergistic
(know), and service oriented (do).
ECONOMIC CAPITAL -
PRINCIPLED, PROFICIENT, PROFOUND
Economic capital is built through operating with principles
centered on Christ, be proficient in what they do to be a
faithful steward of their resources, and do only what is
profound; that is what is right, good, and proper in the
eyes of God. Not everything that can be done, should be
done; virtuous organizations know the difference and act
accordingly.
CONCLUSION
The repeated moral failures of businesses in the 2000’s,
and government in the 2010’s demonstrates the folly of
removing God from the marketplace. In contrast, leaders
and organizations that honor God through virtuous behavior
build the kingdom and increase value for the company and
stakeholder. The next step in the development of the model
22. is to incorporate it into the curriculum of DSB and using it to
teach virtues-based business. t
