Attitudes of Business Faculty Towards Two Methods of Collecting Teaching Evaluations: Paper vs. Online     

Curt J. Dommeyer  Paul Baum  Kenneth S. Chapman  Robert W. Hanna 《Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education》2002,27(5):455-462

Business professors were surveyed to determine their attitudes towards two methods of collecting students' teaching evaluations of faculty--the traditional paper-and-pencil method conducted in class and the online method conducted via the Internet. Faculty preferred the traditional paper method, mainly because they believed it would produce a higher and more accurate response than the online method. Faculty characteristics were examined to determine whether they were related to attitudes towards the online method of collecting teaching evaluations. No characteristics were found to be significantly associated with attitudes towards the online method. Suggestions for future researchers are offered.  相似文献   

Competencies evaluation in engineering programmes     

Mario F. Letelier  José A. Herrera  Andrea M. Canales  Rosario Carrasco  Lorena L. López 《European Journal of Engineering Education》2003,28(3):275-286

Results are reported in this paper from a study aimed at evaluating significant competencies in final-year students of some engineering programmes in Chile. The study was carried out by a group of eight universities that were interested in exploring ways to assess learning outcomes such as those demanded by the recent Chilean accreditation system. The authors actively participated in all stages of the study, contributing directly to the design, application and results evaluation of some tests. A sample of 150 students was tested, under conditions that guaranteed the comparability of results. In this paper the authors present results relating to the evaluation of effective communication. The study was backed up by a conceptual model and some hypotheses that are explained and discussed in this work.  相似文献

Educational knowledge generation from administrative data     

Miguel Arevalillo-Herráez  Paloma Moreno-Clari  Vicente Cerverón-Lleó 《Educational technology research and development : ETR & D》2011,59(4):511-527

Most universities use Information Systems (IS) to perform their daily administrative activities (student enrollment, data files, accountancy, etc.), and an integrated Learning Management System (LMS) to support teaching and learning. However, although a lot of effort has been put into deploying these computerized systems, the data that they provide are not fully exploited from an educational perspective. In this paper we describe a case in which these data have been used to identify relevant relations between the general use of the LMS, the existence of teaching innovation programs and the quality of education. The method used can be easily generalized and employed in other different contexts, to derive meaningful information on the impact that some variables may have over others.  相似文献

Identifying key issues for university practitioners of garden-based learning in Spain     

Marcia Eugenio-Gozalbo  Raquel Pérez-López  Juan-Carlos Tójar-Hurtado 《The Journal of environmental education》2020,51(3):246-255

ABSTRACT

The presence of learning gardens in Spain is growing, and the current scenario is highly diverse in relation to issues such as participatory models or purposes, among others. In the context of the 1^st National Meeting on organic learning gardens, we convened eight expert practitioners in a focus group. Their discourse was analyzed through content analysis, after which four categories were selected for co-occurrence analyses. The most important questions for university garden-based practitioners in the country are presented, related to actors involved, functions that gardens fulfill, strengths of these educational resources, and requirements for their consolidation.  相似文献   

Stimulant medication and reading performance: follow-up on sustained dose in ADHD boys with and without conduct disorders.     

S R Forness  J M Swanson  D P Cantwell  D Youpa  G L Hanna 《Journal of learning disabilities》1992,25(2):115-123

The study examined the sustained effects of methylphenidate on reading performance in a sample of 42 boys, aged 8 to 11, with attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Two subgroups were formed based on the presence or absence of co-occurring conduct disorders. Subjects were selected on the basis of their positive response to methylphenidate as determined in a series of original medication trials (Forness, Cantwell, Swanson, Hanna, & Youpa, 1991). For the purpose of this study, subjects were placed on their optimal dose of medication for a 6-week period and then tested on measures of oral reading and reading comprehension equivalent to those used in the original trials, retested after a week without medication (placebo), then tested again the following week after return to medication. Only the subgroup with conduct disorders responded, and this response was limited to reading comprehension improvement in only those subjects who also demonstrated improvement in oral reading on original trials. No response differences were found between subjects with or without learning disabilities.  相似文献
