La qualité d'un apprentissage se mesure en évaluant ce qui a été appris. On utilise en général trois critères d'évaluation : la validité, l'utilité et le niveau d'abstraction de ce qui a été appris. On préférera des acquis plus abstraits dans la mesure où ils renferment une plus grande quantité d'information; le niveau d'abstraction influence également la capacité d'explication du système sur ce qu'il a appris. 2, record 4, French, - niveau%20d%27abstraction
