Chapter 13 Blogging Statement

What is the best model to use for evaluating the curriculum?

22 comments:

  1. I believe the Saylor, Alexander, & Lewis Model is the best one for evaluating the curriculum. The evaluation program consists of evaluating goals, subgoals, & objectives. This model recommends formative evaluation of the program and summative evaluation of the educational program. These two evaluations cover all basis of the instruction and the curriculum. It offers a comprehensive view of curriuclum evaluation.

  2. I think the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis Model is the best model for evaluating the curriculum. The five components are very useful. From the goals, subgoals, and objectives to the program of education as a totality to the specific segments of the education program to instruction and the evaluation program it covers all the bases. It also calls attention to both formative and summative aspects of evaluation.

  3. I agree with the two previous posts, that the Saylor, Alexander and Lewis Model is the best for evaluating the curriculum. This model requires that data is used to evaluate the program. This model also uses formative and summative assessments.

  5. I chose the Saylor, alexander, and Lewis model because it covered all of the specific curriculum areas and it is easier to understand and use.

  6. I also like the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis model of Evaluation. It is comprehensive in nature, including an evaluation of the evaluation program. It includes formative and summative assessments of goals, total education program, specific education program, instruction, and the evaluation program.

  7. Well it seems as if I'm not the only one who feels the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis model of evaluation is both valid and practical. Its evaluation of every aspect of the curriculum provides the curriculum desiner/developer with data that is resourceful for reflection.

  8. I like the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis model as well. The process seems very comprehensive and I'm sure if one were to have an unlimited amount of time and resources to implement the model appropriately and then given the freedom to enact change based on the results very positive results would occur.

  11. Like everyone else, I like the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis Model for curriculum evaluation. It uses both formative and summative assessments as means of gathering data. Also it allows the developer to really reflect on the quality of curriculum.

  12. I believe the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis model present the most effective curriculum evaluation. This model discusses goals, subgoals, and objectives, talks about the total overall program, breaks down the total program into segments, and evaluates the program. The Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis model also uses both formative and summative evaluation. I feel this model touches all the important components for curriculum evaluation.

  14. I would also agree that Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis is the best model for curriculum evaluation. I would also agree that one of the biggest benefits of this model is that it uses both formative and summative assessment goals. I also think it is the best evaluation model because of its ability to evaluating the program in its totality.

  15. I also chose the Saylor, Alexander and Lewis model. It seems to be a comprehensive plan to evaluate curriculum. It almost follows the ideas of Bloom's Taxonomy which is an effective way to deliver instruction.

  17. I would have to agree with the others. I like the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis Model. From the beginning of the semester when we read about the different models to develop a curriculm, I like the idea of having your curriculum goals and objectives. Then having instructional goals and objectives and then work from there. The Saylor, Alexander and Lewis Model evaluates the curriculum from general to specific. I also agree how it uses both formative and summative assessments and portrays Bloom's levels of taxonomy.

  18. I would also have to agree with the others. I think the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis Model is the best model to use for evaluating curriculum. As already stated, it calls for evaluating the goals, subgoals, and objectives, the program of education as a totality, the specific segments of the education program, instruction, and evaluation.

  19. It seems that the Saylor, Alexander, and Lewis model is very popular within the blogging site and I have to say that I will agree with those that chose this. I like that you are able to use the formative and summative assessment with it and also that you are able to reflected upon the tasks that have been completed and are able to reconstruct where needed.
