Traditional health and safety testing is time-consuming. Embedded performance measures offer an effective, integrated alternative for assessing trainee competence through problem-solving tasks.

Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health and Safety
  • Educational Assessment
  • Training Methodologies

Background:

  • Standard testing in health and safety training is often neglected due to its time-intensive nature.
  • This leads to incomplete assessment of trainee knowledge and skills.
  • An alternative assessment method is needed to ensure comprehensive evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the history and evolution of embedded performance measures.
  • To evaluate the effectiveness of embedded performance measures in health and safety training.
  • To present embedded performance measures as a viable alternative to traditional testing.

Main Methods:

  • Historical review of embedded performance measures.
  • Analysis of integration within instructional design.

  • Focus on problem-solving tasks as assessment tools.

    • Main Results:

    • Embedded performance measures are integrated directly into the learning process.
    • They require learners to complete multiple, short problem-solving tasks.
    • This method provides continuous assessment of competence.

    Conclusions:

    • Embedded performance measures are a practical and effective alternative to traditional health and safety testing.
    • Their integration into training enhances assessment completion rates.
    • This approach ensures better evaluation of trainee performance in health and safety contexts.
