Module Resources CommonsOverviewThe Module Resources Commons is designed both to support the instructional and interactive modules of EDMS and to assist users to access resources on evaluation by approach, methodology, and application. EDMS templates and all other online resources are organized by approach. New to EDMS resources?To fully harness the resources and tools in the Module Resource Commons it is recommended that users first engage the EDMS instructional and interactive modules; while completing the instructional modules, resources such as the best examples of outcomes assessments are displayed by linking to other good examples in the Module Resources Commons (.xls, .ppt etc.) and additional resources online. If you discover additional evaluation resources online that have not yet been incorporated into EDMS, please contact the EDMS team and share the resources. View Resources by Evaluation Approach:
