What stakeholders really think of eLearning. Quality through self-evaluation.DeborahJane
SEVAQ+ is a tool and approach for self-evaluating the quality of technology-enhanced learning.

The project aims to support quality and attractiveness of vocational and higher education. SEVAQ+ extends an earlier version to include additional stakeholders like managers and trainers, contexts like vocational and higher education, and frameworks like EFQM and Kirkpatrick models. It was tested by over 1500 current testers across Europe to validate the tool.

Covey says most people look for quick fixes. They see a big success and want to know how he did it, believing (and hoping) they can do the same following a quick bullet list.
But real change, the author says, comes not from the outside in, but from the inside out. And the most fundamental way of changing yourself is through a paradigm shift.
That paradigm shift is a new way of looking at the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People presents an approach to effectiveness based on character and principles.
The first three habits indeed deal with yourself because it all starts with you. The first three habits move you from dependence from the world to the independence of making your own world.
Habits 4, 5 and 6 are about people and relationships. The will move you from independence to interdependence. Such, cooperating to achieve more than you could have by yourself.
The last habit, habit number 7, focuses on continuous growth and improvement.
