Book excerpt: This report describes the views of graduates from Australian universities regarding the courses that they completed. It focuses specifically on graduates who completed their courses of study in 1999 but also references cohorts of previous graduates. The data are taken from the Course Experience Questionnaire (CEQ) that was administered during 2000 as part of the 2000 Graduate Destination Survey (GDS) to 50,455 respondents. This report focuses on the responses of bachelor graduates to the items relating to the Good Teaching Scale and the Overall Satisfaction item. Nationally, 68 percent of the graduates expressed agreement with the statement ' Overall I was satisfied with the quality of this course'. There has been a small but steady increase in this level of agreement since 1993. In 2000, 90 percent of bachelor degree graduates were 'broadly satisfied' with the overall quality of their courses, up from 86 percent in 1993. The level of 'broad satisfaction' with good teaching in 2000 was 77 percent, an increase from 72 percent in 1995. Over the period from 1993 to 2000 the mean percentage agreement on the Clear Goals and Standards scale has risen from 44 to 51 percent and the level of 'broad satisfaction' has increased from 77 to 82 percent. In the Appropriate Assessment scale the mean percentage agreement declined from 63 to 57 percent and 'broad satisfaction' declined from 87 to 84 percent. It could be inferred from this trend that there has been a shift in assessment in higher education towards factual content and knowledge rather than thinking skills. There has been very little change between 1993 and 2000 in the mean percentage agreement on the Appropriate Workload scale. The variations in results seem to come less from characteristics of the graduates and more from factors relating to age, different fields of study and different universities. [Executive summary, ed]

Book Synopsis Evaluating Teaching and Learning by : David Kember
Download or read book Evaluating Teaching and Learning written by David Kember and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every semester, colleges and universities ask students to complete innumerable course and teaching evaluation questionnaires to evaluate the learning and teaching in courses they have taken. For many universities it is a requirement that all courses be evaluated every semester. The laudable rationale is that the feedback provided will enable instructors to improve their teaching and the curriculum, thus enhancing the quality of student learning. In spite of this there is little evidence that it does improve the quality of teaching and learning. Ratings only improve if the instruments and the presentation of results are sufficiently diagnostic to identify potential improvements and there is effective counselling. Evaluating Teaching and Learning explains how evaluation can be more effective in enhancing the quality of teaching and learning and introduces broader and more diverse forms of evaluation. This guide explains how to develop questionnaires and protocols which are valid, reliabile and diagnostic. It also contains proven instruments that have undergone appropriate testing procedures, together with a substantial item bank. The book looks at the specific national frameworks for the evaluation of teaching in use in the USA, UK and Australia. It caters for diverse methodologies, both quantitative and qualitative and offers solutions that allow evaluation at a wide range of levels: from classrooms to programmes to departments and entire institutions. With detail on all aspects of the main evaluation techniques and instruments, the authors show how effective evaluation can make use of a variety of approaches and combine them into an effective project. With a companion website which has listings of the questionnaires and item bank, this book will be of interest to those concerned with organising and conducting evaluation in a college, university, faculty or department. It will also appeal to those engaged in the scholarship of teaching and learning.
Book Synopsis Contemporary Issues in Education by : David Seth Preston
Download or read book Contemporary Issues in Education written by David Seth Preston and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2005 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the warm reception given to The Idea of Education, a volume of papers in this same Rodopi Series, a second conference around similar themes was held at Oxford University and this book is the result. This edited book provides the reader with a fairly representative, coherent and cohesive statement of the 2003 Oxford conference. Quoting the Chancellor of Paris University with regretting that "in the old days ... lectures were more frequent ... but now the time taken for lectures is being spent in meeting and discussions" our keynote Frank McMahon made the profound observation that some of the issues around education have been with us for a surprisingly long time. Notwithstanding the longevity of some questions concerning education, this book details and examines contemporary educational practice and theory and as such it is a very important work.
Book Synopsis Applied Rasch Measurement: A Book of Exemplars by : Sivakumar Alagumalai
Download or read book Applied Rasch Measurement: A Book of Exemplars written by Sivakumar Alagumalai and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-30 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the primary purpose of the book is a celebration of John’s contributions to the field of measurement, a second and related purpose is to provide a useful resource. We believe that the combination of the developmental history and theory of the method, the examples of its use in practice, some possible future directions, and software and data files will make this book a valuable resource for teachers and scholars of the Rasch method. This book is a tribute to Professor John P Keeves for the advocacy of the Rasch model in Australia. Happy 80th birthday John! xii There are good introductory texts on Item Response Theory, Objective Measurement and the Rasch model. However, for a beginning researcher keen on utilising the potentials of the Rasch model, theoretical discussions of test theory and associated indices do not meet their pragmatic needs. Furthermore, many researchers in measurement still have little or no knowledge of the features of the Rasch model and its use in a variety of situations and disciplines. This book attempts to describe the underlying axioms of test theory, and, in particular, the concepts of objective measurement and the Rasch model, and then link theory to practice. We have been introduced to the various models of test theory during our graduate days. It was time for us to share with those keen in the field of measurement in education, psychology and the social sciences the theoretical and practical aspects of objective measurement.

Book excerpt: In recent years, student feedback has appeared at the forefront of higher education quality. In particular, the issues of effectiveness and the use of student feedback to affect improvement in higher education teaching and learning, and also other areas of student tertiary experience. Despite this, there has been a relative lack of academic literature, especially in book format, focusing on the experiences of academics, higher education leaders and managers with expertise in this area. This comprehensive book addresses this gap.With contributions by experts in the area of higher education quality (academics, higher education leaders and managers) from a range of countries the book is concerned with the practices and theory of evaluation in higher education quality, in particular the issue of student feedback. - Experiences from interaction experts in the field - Practical applications - A resource guide that can be utilized in the higher education sector

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written in an accessible style, this book facilitates a deep understanding of the Rasch model. Authors Bond and Fox review the crucial properties of the Rasch model and demonstrate its use with a wide range of examples including the measurement of educational achievement, human development, attitudes, and medical rehabilitation. A glossary and numerous illustrations further aid the reader's understanding. The authors demonstrate how to apply Rasch analysis and prepare readers to perform their own analyses and interpret the results. Updated throughout, highlights of the Second Edition include: a new CD that features an introductory version of the latest Winsteps program and the data files for the book’s examples, preprogrammed to run using Winsteps; a new chapter on invariance that highlights the parallels between physical and human science measurement; a new appendix on analyzing data to help those new to Rasch analysis; more explanation of the key concepts and item characteristic curves; a new empirical example with data sets demonstrates the many facets of the Rasch model and other new examples; and an increased focus on issues related to unidimensionality, multidimensionality, and the Rasch factor analysis of residuals. Applying the Rasch Model is intended for researchers and practitioners in psychology, especially developmental psychologists, education, health care, medical rehabilitation, business, government, and those interested in measuring attitude, ability, and/or performance. The book is an excellent text for use in courses on advanced research methods, measurement, or quantitative analysis. Significant knowledge of statistics is not required.

Book Synopsis Accounting Education Research by : Richard M.S. Wilson
Download or read book Accounting Education Research written by Richard M.S. Wilson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-04-10 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An annual prize is awarded for the best paper appearing in Accounting Education: an international journal, and this book contains the prize-winning papers for every year from 1992 to 2012. The journal’s primary mission since the first issue was published in March 1992 has been to enhance the educational base of accounting practice, and all the papers in this book relate to that mission. These papers, reporting on research studies undertaken by accounting education scholars from around the world, build on research findings from the broader domain of education scholarship and embrace a wide array of topics – including: curriculum development, pedagogic innovation, improving the quality of learning, and assessing learning outcomes. Of particular interest are three themes, each of which runs through several of the papers: students’ approaches to learning and learning style preferences; ethics and moral intensity; and innovation within the accounting curriculum. Accounting educators will find many ideas in the book to help them in enriching their work, and accounting education researchers will be able to identify many points of departure for extending the studies on which the papers report – whether comparatively or longitudinally. This book is a compilation of papers originally published in Accounting Education: an international journal.
