Ben Hirst Fire Officer 1 Practice Exam

Testing a learner after instruction focuses on measuring whether the objectives were met and the learner can apply the knowledge and skills. When a company officer administers a written or practical test, they’re evaluating performance to determine mastery, provide feedback, and decide whether the learner is ready to progress or needs further instruction. The other stages are about planning the instruction (preparation), delivering the material (presentation), and giving opportunities to practice (application). So giving a test is best described as the evaluation phase.
