Evaluating eLearning is often a one-and-done process, typically at the end of a learning experience. But factoring in data collected throughout the learning process can turn eLearning evaluation into an ongoing process integrated into every step, from planning and design, through the entire learner experience, making feedback and revision integral parts of the cycle.

In her comprehensive report on the emerging field of learning engineering, Ellen Wagner suggested looking at “continual enterprise feedback and revision” as a way to think about evaluation. “Learning and training outcomes are as much a part of formative inputs for the next round of learning experiences, as are materials, platforms, and conditions for performance evaluation, learner evaluation, instructor evaluation, and institutional evaluation,” she wrote.
