reflect
consonance with objectives.

reflect
consonance with objectives.
4. Very good : Media mix is appropriate, engaging and reflects
consonance with
objectives.

and is very well integrated in the product.


2.5 Learner Evaluation Scheme includes a variety of assessment techniques and is consonant with learning objectives.


1.
Poor
: Learner evaluation scheme is not outlined.
2.
Average
: Learner evaluation scheme is outlined, but includes a limited variety
of assessment techniques and does not reflect consonance with
learning objectives.
3.
Good
: Learner evaluation scheme includes a fair variety of assessment
techniques and reflects consonance with a few learning objectives.
4.
Very good
: Learner evaluation scheme includes a large variety of assessment
techniques and reflects consonance with most learning objectives.
5.
Excellent
: Learner evaluation scheme includes a large variety of innovatively
conceived assessment techniques and reflects consonance with all
learning objectives.

2.6 The Graphical User Interface (GUI) Design is intuitive, visually appealing and consistent.


1.
Poor : GUI Design is not included as part of the process.
2.
Average : GUI Design is included, but is not intuitive, visually appealing and
consistent (with respect to use of colour, style etc).
3.
Good : GUI Design is intuitive, but not visually appealing and consistent.
4.
Very good : GUI Design is intuitive and visually appealing, but not consistent.
5.
Excellent : GUI Design is intuitive, visually appealing and consistent.

2.7 Fonts are legible and visually appealing.


1. Poor
: Legibility of fonts (size, type, language, etc) and visual appeal
(colour, style, etc) are not given consideration.
2. Average
: Legibility of fonts is somewhat considered, but visual appeal is not
given consideration.
3. Good
: Fonts are legible and appropriate, but visual appeal is only marginally
considered.
4. Very good
: Font legibility and visual appeal are adequately considered. (Font
colours communicate information hierarchy).
5. Excellent
: Font legibility and visual appeal are adequately as well as
appropriately considered. (Font colors communicate information
hierarchy and overall technicalities with respect to fonts are also
considered).

2.8 Layouts are clearly defined, consider all elements and reflect information hierarchy.


1. Poor
: No thought is given to layouts
2. Average
: Layouts are defined, but not clear and do not reflect information
hierarchy and consideration of all elements. (e.g. video windows,
pop-ups etc).
3. Good
: Layouts are clearly defined and marginally reflect information
hierarchy, but do not consider all elements.
4. Very good
: Layouts are clearly defined, largely reflect information hierarchy, but
do not consider all elements.
5. Excellent
: Layouts are clearly defined, fully reflect information hierarchy and
consider all elements appropriately.

2.9 Content, visuals, and instructional strategy are contextually relevant, gender and racially sensitive.


1.
Poor : Content, visuals and instructional strategy are not contextually
relevant and sensitivity to gender and race is not observed.
2.
Average : Content, visuals and instructional strategy are contextually relevant
to some extent, but sensitivity to gender and race is not observed.
3.
Good : Content, visuals and instructional strategy are contextually quite
relevant and slight sensitivity to gender and race is observed.
4.
Very good : Content, visuals and instructional strategy are contextually relevant
as well as gender and racially sensitive.
5.
Excellent : Content, visuals and instructional strategy are contextually relevant,
gender and racially sensitive and the visual style is both relevant and
innovative.

2.10 Technical design is consonant with ‘Analysis’, ‘Instructional Strategy’ and ‘Visual Design’ requirements.

1. Poor : Technical Design does not reflect consideration of ‘Analysis’, ‘Instructional Strategy’ and ‘Visual Design’ requirements.


2. Average : Technical Design reflects marginal/slight consideration of ‘Analysis’, ‘Instructional Strategy’ and ‘Visual Design’ requirements. (Few requirements considered).


3. Good : Technical Design reflects considerable consideration of ‘Analysis’, ‘Instructional Strategy’ and ‘Visual Design’ requirements. (Many requirements considered).


4. Very good : Technical Design reflects consideration of all (explicit and implicit) ‘Analysis’, ‘Instructional Strategy’ and ‘Visual Design’ requirements.

5. Excellent : Technical Design reflects consideration of all explicit and implicit requirements, is well documented and uses innovative design approaches to take care of requirements.


2.11 The technical design reflects the latest developments in technology.


1.
Poor

developments in technology.
2.
Average
: The Technical Design reflects limited use of the latest developments
in technology.
3.
Good

latest developments in technology to meet overall requirements and
create new paradigms in learning.

2.12 Technical Design is compatible with on-line delivery requirements.


1. Poor
: Technical Design does not consider on-line delivery requirements.
2. Average
: Thought appears to be given to on-line delivery requirements but
does not translate in the technical design clearly.
3. Good
: Technical Design reflects compatibility / scalability to on-line delivery
requirements
4. Very good
: Technical Design reflects compatibility / scalability to on-line delivery
requirements and documents the format changes required.
5. Excellent
: Technical Design reflects compatibility / scalability to on-line delivery
requirements and documents the format changes required. Uses
innovative techniques to make the content compatible with on-line
delivery.

2.13 Prototype Testing shows the effectiveness of ‘Instructional Design Strategy’, ‘Visual Design’ and ‘Technical Design’.


1.
Poor
: Prototype testing is not done at all.
2.
Average
: Prototype Testing though conducted shows that Design decisions
are not in accordance with requirements.
3.
Good
: Prototype testing shows that Design decisions are in accordance
with requirements, but require enhancements in all the three design
areas.
4.
Very good
: Prototype Testing shows that Design decisions are in accordance
with requirements but require slight enhancements in one or more
of the design areas.
5.
Excellent
: Prototype Testing shows that Design decisions are in accordance
