- Barry R. Hill, CETL Director. "What are your learners actually learning? Applying mental model analysis as an alternative instructional assessment method--really!"
Traditional assessment techniques often do not provide a truly accurate picture of what learners are actually learning from instruction. Analyzing mental models digs into how each individual is processing the content and experiences from your course. We'll show you a method that's easy and quick to implement that just might surprise you when you give it a whirl.
