Evalution sheet #2

Since the learning objectives are an important part of the three workshops that have been developed in the EOP, Jean Harden had a great idea of having the learning objectives available to all the train-the-trainer folks in the morning "model" workshop observations with space to write notes. This second evaluation sheet will be included in the pre-conference workshop folders but I thought you might want a "preview" of this document.

Under each learning objective is space to write comments on whether the objective was covered, how well it was covered, and how pertinent to the workshop as a whole it seemed to be. If the objective was not covered, there is space to indicate whether that omission made sense in the current context.

Train-the-trainer Comment Sheet for Learning Objectives

Sound Recordings Cataloging Workshop

Below are listed the learning outcomes for the Sound Recordings Cataloging Workshop. Under each learning objective is space for you to write your comments on whether the objective was covered, how well it was covered, and how pertinent to the workshop as a whole it seemed to be. If the objective was not covered, indicate whether that omission made sense in the current context.

By the end of the Music Reference Training Session, the participant will be able to:

  1. Explain the difference between Record Types “i” and “j” and be able to list at least three kinds of ambiguous sound recordings that should be categorized as Type “i”.

  1. Explain the proper Type and Bibliographic Level coding for a sound recording that also happens to be a continuing resource.
