Different Roles for Online Facilitators

Tony, Great observation. I do think a grader really is just what you say, someone who does the mechanical work. An Evaluator takes that information and makes inferences on the data and provides feedback. Does this make sense to you? I think educators are (and should) be evolving into evaluators rather than just a grader. Dr. Kelly Wilkinson
