Needs Assessment Instrument
 

Assignment  Description: Students will design a needs assessment instrument for their own project.

1. Identify the discrepancy between  “what is” and “what should be” for your setting
2. List potential sources of data (e.g., students, teachers, parents, administrators, school records, test scores) that would confirm the existence of the problem, to establish “what is.”
3. Create a list of potential needs assessment items that could be used to collect the necessary data. Determine whether more than one needs assessment or other data collection device would be required to collect the necessary information. Keep in  mind that no items may ask for information that could identify the respondent or intrude into their privacy. Each needs assessment instrument must be completely anonymous.
4. Create your needs assessment instrument(s) and submit it/them to your instructor.

Needs Assessment

Assignment  Reflection

The Needs Assessment  Instrument assignment was important not only for the concept paper, but an assessment tool and lesson that can be used in the workplace. Working in training and development I had some previous knowledge on assessments, but got an in-depth lesson on enhancing them to clearly identify needs. This assignment showed me the importance of not only customizing each assessment specifically to address your needs, but the value of taking the time to write clear directions for participants. The process of creating a needs assessment showed me how to gather anonymous information to confirm the existence of a problem and identify them through data driven results.
