Learner Objectives
Upon completion of
the program,
participants will be
able to:
Describe the
pathophysiology of
CHF and how the
diagnosis of CHF
is determined.
Learner Objectives
 Explain
the difference between
systolic and diastolic heart failure and
the importance of assessing left
ventricular function in
suspected CHF patients
Learner Objectives
 Describe
the role of appropriate
medications for CHF patients
 Identify
the components of
appropriate discharge planning for
CHF patients.

Acceptable Outcomes
Pre & Post Designed Testing- Cognitive
Domain
 Does not pre-determine how a student can
learn, however can determine knowledge
base
 Analyzes conclusions drawn from the
information in lecture form.
 Assesses knowledge learned in the class (in
post testing).
Acceptable Outcomes
Observation & Simulation- Psychomotor
Domain
 Teach, learn and practice
 Safe environment
 Encourages close interaction in learning
 Ultimate level is at skill performanceautomatic without practice needed.
Acceptable Outcomes
Participation/Discussion- Audio Domain
 Active learning should be encouraged
 Discuss CHF in a report of the consequences
on diet and medication non-compliance
 Discuss in this same report that patient
contribution and taking action in diet and
medications make a big difference in how
they feel.

Context Evaluation
–
–
–
Identify target population
Needs assessment (pre/post testing, observation)
Textbook knowledge applied to practice
CIPP Evaluation Model

Input Evaluation
–
Identifies & assesses:
 System capabilities
 Alternative program strategies
 Procedural designs for implementation
 Student plan of care & interventions
CIPP Evaluation Model

Process Evaluation
–
–
–
–
Detects defects
Advantages vs. disadvantages
Evaluate performance, time
management, documentation
Simulation-Educators can
observe & intervene

Conclusion



Evaluation is accomplished through
observation, participation, pre/post testing,
diagrams, case studies, and simulation.
Effective evaluation strategies must consider
the purpose, advantages and disadvantages
of the evaluation tool.
CIPP Evaluation Framework-measures
weaknesses/strengths, provides alternative
options/information for decision makers
