چکیده
In recent years, higher-education has started to introduce blended-learning schemes in the language learning curricula. The evaluation of this kind of scheme has two important aspects: the design of the resources and the delivery of the courses. The use of specialised tools makes both of these aspects easier. This study focuses on the evaluation of an e-language learning scheme undertaken at the Universidad Politécnica de Valencia (Spain). The pilot scheme was carried out in the context of a blended-learning course in a Public Management degree which has used the InGenio authoring tool and system to design and deliver the course. An evaluation method has been used to organize and control the several phases in the e-learning experience as well as the quality criteria to be checked. The paper describes the application of the method and some implementation mechanisms used in order to check the elearning experience are also reported.
