PWS Intended Outcomes PWS Assessment Tasks PWS Process Skills PWS Concepts and Issues What do learners need to be able to DO “in their work” that we’re responsible for addressing “in the PWS training session”? For example, post-session performance. What will learners do in the PWS training to demonstrate evidence of what they can do? For example, in-session evidence of performance – assessment of tasks. What skills must the learner master to demonstrate what they can do? For example, specific acts, ability to do tasks – process skills. What must the learner understand about PWS to demonstrate what they can do? For example, specific facts, patterns, values, motivations – concepts and issues.
