Platform capability / Evaluations & Assessments

One evaluation suite. Different ways to assess, listen and understand.

KnowHow supports knowledge, opinion, feedback, moderated and competency-oriented evaluation activity — independently or connected to courses, performance reviews, events and other development processes.

The evaluation challenge

Different questions need different ways to assess, listen and respond.

A single quiz or survey format cannot cover every learning, feedback, moderation or competency requirement. KnowHow provides a broader Evaluation Suite so the approach can match the purpose.

01

Different outcomes

Testing knowledge, gathering opinion and assessing competence require different response and evidence structures.

02

Different participants

Some evaluations are completed by learners, others by peers, managers, moderators or assessors according to the configured process.

03

Different follow-up

A score, opinion, moderated answer or competency judgement can each lead to a different next action.

The Evaluation Suite

Seven evaluation types. One configurable environment.

Choose the evaluation structure that fits the purpose, participant model and evidence required. Evaluations can operate independently or within a wider learning, performance, event or development workflow.

01

ASSESS KNOWLEDGE

A connected evaluation journey

From evaluation design to meaningful follow-up.

The evaluation type can change, but the wider process remains connected to the learning or development activity around it.

01

Design

Select the evaluation type and configure the questions, participants and controls.

02

Deliver

Place the evaluation independently or within the relevant course, event or development workflow.

03

Respond

Learners, colleagues, managers, moderators or assessors participate according to the configured process.

04

Review

Score, moderate, interpret or consolidate responses according to the evaluation design.

05

Act

Use outcomes to support learning, development, programme improvement or reporting.

The evaluation experience

Keep evaluation close to the learning and development activity it supports.

KnowHow can present evaluation activity within the wider learner journey so assessment, feedback and moderation remain connected to the context that generated them.

  • Evaluation activity within courses and programmes
  • Feedback connected to events and development processes
  • Access aligned to participant and administrator roles
  • Results available for follow-up and reporting

Assessment controls & learner feedback

Control how an assessment is delivered, experienced and followed up.

Evaluation design extends beyond the question itself. KnowHow provides configurable controls around question selection, timing, attempts, scoring, feedback and completion.

Question banks & randomisation

Use question banks and randomised question selection according to the assessment design.

Schedules & availability

Configure schedules, availability windows, pass marks and expiry where required.

Attempts & results

Track attempts, score, duration and time-stamp information according to the assessment design.

Questions inside video

Insert questions into video at selected points to encourage attention and understanding.

AI-assisted question generation

Generate assessment questions from selected content, subject to administrator review.

Moderated Assessment

Use human review where automated scoring is not enough.

Moderated Assessments can combine automated questions with free-text or evidence responses that require a person to review the learner’s submission.

01

Assign a moderatorRoute human-review activity to an authorised moderator.

02

Mark and commentReview free-text or evidence responses and capture moderator feedback.

03

Handle the resultUse the configured process to complete result handling and follow-up.

From response to follow-up

Use evaluation to support what happens next.

The result can inform different actions depending on the evaluation type and configured process.

01

Reinforce learning

Use knowledge-assessment outcomes to support further learning where appropriate.

02

Improve programmes

Use Opinion Survey feedback to understand courses, facilitators, events or wider organisational topics.

03

Support development

Use 360-degree or competency inputs within configured development processes.

04

Strengthen visibility

Bring assessment and feedback information into relevant reporting and organisational views.
