Further Education Development Agency, London (England).
This guide, which is intended for General National Vocational Qualifications (GNVQ) tutors, coordinators, and INSET (In-Service Education of Teachers) trainers, provides a framework within which GNVQ course teams can choose learning resources suited to their particular program's context. Section 1, which explains how to use the document as an INSET tool and for evaluation of individual GNVQ learning resources, contains task outlines and resource audit forms for use in conducting an INSET program consisting of the following stages: establishing a starting point; analyzing the learning environment and reviewing existing resources; and reporting back and action planning. Sections 2 through 8 present criteria for reviewing the following: the learning environment, presentation and design of materials; an introduction to GNVQ, key skills, activities and assignments, underpinning knowledge, and tests and test practices. Each section begins with an overview of special considerations in evaluating the specific type of learning being evaluated and contains evaluation forms/checklists for completing analyses and evaluations. A leaflet consisting of a checklist for reviewing learning resources in GNVQ programs is included. (MN)
