Consider the following scenario, and address the prompt below in your post: You are a working as a corporate trainer for a mid-sized company of about 300 employees. This company has asked you to ensure that its workers are able to utilize the new version of its database software. Workers range in age from 24–67, and you can assume that all of the workers to be trained are at least moderately proficient with the use of the current version of the database software. To train the workers on the new version of the software, your learning objectives will be:

1) Identify new program features, buttons, and functionalities. 2) Explain new program features, buttons, and functionalities. 3) Perform specific functions with new program features, buttons, and

functionalities. Given the information above, what assessment tools and methods might you use to ensure that your trainees have the best possible chance of mastering the use of the new software?0

Both formative and summative assessments should be used during the training program. Formative assessments will allow me to gauge how well the workers are learning the processes during the training, while a summative assessment will give the workers the opportunity to prove that they have met all three of the learning objectives. I would include short practice tests as formative assessments during the training session, then ask each worker to both complete a written test and perform a specific set of functions using the new software as a summative assessment. During the training session, I will ask learners to follow along on their own computers as I demonstrate the new processes for utilizing the software to help prepare them for their summative assessment. For the written portion of the summative assignment and for the practice tests, I will utilize matching and multiple-choice questions to ensure that workers are meeting the first objective and short answer or essay questions to check their progress with the second objective. Matching and multiple-choice questions on practice tests can help the workers learn to differentiate between the old and new software features, while including them in the summative assessment can demonstrate to me that they have learned the new features they can expect to see in the latest version.
