项目摘要

The purpose of this study is to examine evaluator training programs offered by external quality assurance agencies in the United States and four European countries, and based on the results, to seek desirable training programs applicable to Japanese accrediting organizations. The outline and results of our study are stated below.1.The questionnaire survey was conducted at Japanese universities nationwide in order to determine the status of internal training programs thus enabling evaluators to carry out "self-study" within each individual university and to search for "desirable evaluator training programs" that each university may wish to receive from university accrediting organizations. The response rate was 78% of those surveyed, thus demonstrating a high level of interest regarding this issue.2.To learn about evaluator training programs employed by the US university accreditation system, the scope of the survey included a total of ten institutions, specifically, four regional accre … More diting organizations and six specialized and professional accrediting organizations. The survey was conducted by two methods : 1)participation in training programs offered by three of the organizations and 2)interview of eight of the organizations. Such research in the United States enabled us to deepen our understanding of the current conditions of their evaluator training programs and to facilitate our collection of related materials. We were thus able to offer a better contribution to the improvement of evaluator training programs in Japan.3.Through this survey, which was conducted in four countries in Europe, namely United Kingdom, Netherlands, Germany and France, it was found that evaluator training programs are not provided in these countries, with the exception of the United Kingdom. Nevertheless, by learning about each nation's educational reform movements aimed at attaining higher quality assurance in their systems of higher education, as based on the "Bologna Declaration," we were able to obtain useful suggestions on the proper level of quality assurance that should be achieved by Japanese universities after implementation of the certified evaluation system. It was also discovered that although they employ different evaluation systems, the United States and United Kingdom have similar ideas regarding evaluators and their training. Therefore, Japanese accrediting organizations have many things to learn from the training programs of these two nations, despite of a slight difference in actual practices. Less

本研究的目的是考察美国和四个欧洲国家的外部质量保证机构提供的评估员培训计划，并根据结果寻求适用于日本认证机构的理想培训计划。我们的研究大纲和结果如下。问卷调查是在日本全国的大学进行的，目的是为了确定内部培训计划的状况，从而使评估人员能够在每个大学内部进行“自学”，并寻找每个大学可能希望从大学认证组织获得的“理想的评估人员培训计划”。受访者的回复率为78%，因此显示出对这个问题的高度兴趣。为了了解美国大学认证系统所采用的评估员培训项目，调查的范围包括总共10个机构，具体来说，包括4个区域认证组织和6个专业认证组织。调查通过两种方式进行：1)参加三个组织提供的培训计划，2)采访八个组织。在美国进行的此类研究，使我们加深了对其评估员培训项目现状的了解，并便于我们收集相关资料。因此，我们能够为日本评估员培训项目的改进做出更好的贡献。通过这项在英国、荷兰、德国和法国四个欧洲国家进行的调查发现，除了英国之外，这些国家都没有提供评估员培训项目。然而，通过了解各国以“博洛尼亚宣言”为基础的旨在提高其高等教育体系质量保证的教育改革运动，我们能够获得关于日本大学在实施认证评估制度后应该达到的适当质量保证水平的有用建议。还发现，虽然美国和联合王国采用不同的评价制度，但它们对评价人员及其培训有相似的想法。因此，日本的认证机构可以从这两个国家的培训项目中学习到很多东西，尽管在实际操作上略有不同。少
