Learning Process Maturity Model

  • Conference paper
Software Process Improvement and Capability Determination (SPICE 2014)

Abstract

Process capability maturity modeling elaborated by the Software Engineering community became applicable for any process oriented activity assessment and improvement. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the solution of learning improvement problem based on the process capability maturity modeling approach. Learning process maturity model is developed based on R. Marzano taxonomy of learning objectives. Partial validation of the model developed is performed for the case of two groups of students. Preliminary conclusion: learning process maturity model can be used for learning activity assessment and improvement.
