                               control.  Understanding  sources  can  include  financial  personnel,
                               raw  materials,  time,  facilities,  and  learning  resources.  Learning

                               resources  include  all  the  technologies  described  in  the
                               development  area.  Cost-effectiveness  and  justification  for
                               effective  learning  are  two  essential  characteristics  of  resource

                               management.
                           3)  Delivery system management

                                  The  management  of  the  delivery  system  includes  planning,
                               monitoring,  and  controlling  "how  the  distribution  of  learning
                               materials is organized." It is a combination of the medium and the

                               method used in presenting learning information to learners.
                                  Delivery system management pays attention to product issues

                               such as hardware/software requirements and technical support to
                               users  and  operators.  This  management  also  pays  attention  to
                               process issues such as guidelines for designers and instructors, and

                               trainers.  Delivery  management  decisions  often  depend  on  the
                               sourcing management system.
                           4)  Information management

                                  Information  management  includes  planning,  monitoring,  and
                               controlling how to store, transmit/transfer or process information
                               to  provide  resources  for  learning  activities.  The  importance  of

                               information  management  lies  in  its  potential  to  revolutionize
                               curriculum and to learn design applications.

                       e.  Assessment Area
                           Assessment is a process of determining the adequacy of learning and
                       learning,  including:  (1)  problem  analysis,  (2)  benchmark  reference

                       measurement, (3) formative assessment, and (4) summative assessment.
                           In    assessment,  a  distinction  is  made  between  program,  project,  and

                       product  assessments.  Program  assessment  –  an  evaluation  that  assesses
                       educational  activities  that  provide  services  on  an  ongoing  basis  and  are
                       often involved in curriculum development. For example, an assessment for
