The observation and evaluation of virtual learning lessons and programs have certainly brought several new challenges to educators compared to the traditional in-person classroom setting. In asking this question, your interviewer wants to hear that you understand what these challenges are in the eLearning world. They'll also be looking to hear that you are prepared to evaluate programs effectively as their next eLearning Development Director. Before your interview, be sure to think about the challenges of virtual distance learning and address how you would evaluate the key facets.

"I had experienced this over the last two years when most of my classes went virtual. For one, I know it's critical to establish criteria for the students so they are clear on what they must know from one lesson to the next. I achieve this in several ways. Sometimes through direct interaction with the students. Sometimes I do so via written assignments or tests. Another key to evaluating the effectiveness is accessibility. In a classroom setting, student accessibility was less of a concern because students were present in the classroom. In the virtual world of education, I need to consider the accessibility of mixed media like presentations and videos and audio lectures, as well as platforms and even connectivity. All students must have access. Poor access has a direct impact on the quality of education."
