How to Implement?
Promote Inclusion Wiki was developed to be used with students in a specific college course. Assignments requiring the participation and use of the Wiki are incorporated into the semester and are aligned with course goals and objectives. The instructor must develop the Wiki, create the pages and list the directions on each, even if the page requires participants to enter information. Implementation of this Wiki initially begins at the start of the semester and continues throughout the semester. The implementation and evaluation stages for this particular project need to occur simultaneously, following initial implementation.



Why Use Evaluations?


Evaluations are an important component of instructional design and can serve multiple purposes throughout the design process. Formative and summative evaluations provide useful information for the creator and monitor (i.e., me) of the Wiki. Evaluations should always be connected to the goals and objectives.


Sample Formative Evaluation

Why Use Summative Evaluation?
Evaluating students’ knowledge and opinions at the conclusion of the semester is important for multiple reasons. As the instructor, I need to assess whether students have gained the required course content. The summative evaluation on course content will be based on information presented in class as well as in the Wiki as the Wiki was used as one of multiple instructional strategies. The information gained from this evaluation can be used to provide additional instruction as needed as well as influence the development of future course material. Additionally, getting feedback from users regarding the Wiki at the conclusion of the course will assist in developing a Wiki for future semesters.


Sample Summative Evaluation
Click on the link below to view a sample summative survey that evaluates the effectiveness of the Wiki based on users’ opinion regarding the use of the Wiki in general and the use of the Wiki in connection with the goal and objectives of the Wiki. The summative evaluation of users’ knowledge will be administered in class as a final exam, per the course syllabus.
