On the Evaluation Method for Teaching-Activities and Achievement in Eduction of the Academic Staff in the University

本研究旨在厘清评价高校教职工个人教学活动与绩效的必要条件是什么。它还旨在提出一种可能的评估模式。调查结果总结如下：(1)要做出适当的评估，每个学院必须有明确的教育目的、实现这些目标的能力和一种整体的文化。(2)要对教学活动进行适当的评估，必须明确每门课程的目的或目的。尤其是通识教育的课程设置，应遵循一种引导学生参与社会、终身学习的指导思想。(3)学生评课对提高教师的教学水平和评价方法都是有效的。北海道大学在过去几年广泛开展的班级评估中积累的数据和评论证实了这一点。(4)班级评估不应与每个教职员工的评估直接相关。结果在很大程度上取决于班级规模、学科类型和在册学生的能力分布。(5)基于以上考虑，提出了一种可能的档案袋风格评价方法。它包括教学义务数据以及学生评课的结果。(6)最后，调查人员建议通过引入信息技术来彻底改变教学风格，并强调其与评价的相关性。

The purpose of this study is to clarify what is necessary condition for evaluating teaching-activities and-achievement of the academic staff in university as individual. It is also aiming at proposing a possible model of the evaluation. The results of the investigation are summarized as follows.(1) To make an appropriate evaluation, each institute must have clear purposes in education, ability to realize them, and a sort of culture as a whole.(2) To make an appropriate evaluation of teaching activities, the aims or purposes of each curriculum must be stated explicitly. The curriculum of general education, in particular, should be organized according to a guiding principle which leads to a sense of participation in society and lifelong learning for students.(3) Class-evaluation by students is effective for improving both teaching skills and evaluation method of the faculty. This is verified by the data and comments accumulated in the class-evaluation carried out extensively in the past several years in Hokkaido University.(4) The class evaluation, however, should not be related directly to the evaluation of each faculty. The results depend very much on the size of class, the kind of discipline, and the distribution of ability of the students registered.(5) Basing on the above considerations, a possible evaluation method of portfolio style is proposed. It includes teaching-obligation data as well as the results of class-evaluation by studtens.(6) Finally, the investigators suggest a drastic change in teaching style by introducing information technology, and emphasize its relevance to the evaluation.
