| Research Abstract |
Tasks of this year were to collect course evalution by students and to analyze characteristics of item means, utilizing the NIME's support system for evaluation of learning and instruction in higher education. Evaluative data for various lectures were accumulated. One of the major findings was the difference in item means regarding two different types of courses taught by the same lecturer. One lecutre was titles "Statistics for Education", a relatively tough subject for education majors. The course was basically a lecture series of the textbook contents, using a blackboard. the other lecture was titled "Instructional Psychology", in which every class began with a question as a warm-up 'think' exercise for the topics introduced in the lecture. Differences of means were detected on the items reflecting course characteristics, such as "difficulty of contents ("Statistics" was higher)", "lecture guided students to think ("Instructional Psychology" was higher)". Little difference was observed regarding the perception of the lecturere and learning styles of students. These results suggest that course characteristics are adequately reflected on item means of evaluation survey based on student responses. We should further need to clarify the correspondance between evaluative item and specific ideas for course improvement.
Also, we have developed a computer software to access the Support System for Evaluation of Learning and Instruction" via Internet, for a easier administration of the evaluation survey. We anticipate more accumulation of evaluation surveys for various course types as well as more facilitation of discussion for course improvement.
