Evaluation For Continuous Improvement
 | There are two primary purposes for educational evaluation:
Step 3 of the University’s strategic plan emphasises the importance of both purposes, “to assure and improve continuously the quality of what we do”. |
Although some evaluation instruments attempt to address both purposes , any one evaluation instrument inevitably focuses on one purpose over another because the evaluation requirements of QA and QE are largely incompatible.
The Teaching and Learning Centre
(TLC) has developed a suite of developmental evaluation tools that staff
can use for QE purposes. The tools may be modified to suit different
contexts, and are designed for self-administration and analysis. The
tools are grouped into four categories, based on the source of
evaluative feedback: students, self, peers and research and theory.
