Abstract

This paper describes beta version of implementation tool which we developed to test structure oriented evaluation model for e-learning. The structure oriented evaluation (SURE) model consists of eight steps where included all essential parts of evaluation processes. The Mongolian University of Science and Technology and Technische Universitaet Chemnitz first time used this evaluation model for inner evaluation processes. To test advantages of SURE model we developed web based application - tool for SURE model. The beta version of tool was used in evaluation processes of above mentioned two universities. This application includes main functions of evaluation process: to create online survey based in the evaluation goal structures, to collect data online, to process data using calculation rules of SURE model, to produce graphical and statistical diagrams by evaluation scores.
