Assessment Techniques Appropriate to the Knowledge-Competence Continuum.
Hawe, L. Q.
Aspects of Educational and Training Technology Series, v25 p71-74 1992
The recognition that knowledge, competence, and contribution are stages on a continuum has major implications for assessment methods. Written examinations are thought convenient and cost effective, but if students are to be evaluated as future employees, assignments and examinations should have professional relevance. Students can be best evaluated by open-ended assignments, case studies, and projects. (PEN)
