In distinguishing between evaluation methods used in school versus those used in the work environment, it is noted that the work environment evaluation includes:

a. determining whether steps are logical.
b. formulating increments in correct order.
c. efficiently organizing stages of the procedure.
d. appraising outcomes according to policy.


ANS: D
Correct: Outcomes are based on meeting existing criteria rather than on knowing how the outcome was achieved.
Incorrect:
a. The step "determining whether steps are logical" represents the school environment, in which steps are performed on the basis of sound rationales.
b. The step "formulating increments in correct order" represents the school environment evaluation, which stems from the "correct step" aspect.
c. The step "appraising outcomes according to policy" represents the school environment, in which each step is evaluated, rather than indicating the overall outcome.
