In the current higher education landscape, universities are facing expanding requirements beyond teaching and research. Evaluation methods must evolve accordingly to prevent universities from facing development dilemmas. Current mainstream evaluation methods primarily emphasize the research domain, often failing to holistically capture a…

The study aims to investigate the mediating role of output, productivity, and outcome variables in the relationship between input or process variables and research performance. By examining how these variables interact, the study aims to enhance our understanding of the factors that influence research performance. This role was investigated using…

Calls for increased monitoring and evaluation of education policies and practices have not, so far, included widespread and consistent assessments of the inclusiveness of education settings. Measuring inclusion in education has proven to be a challenging exercise, due not only to the complexity and different uses of the concept, but also to its…

The aim of this paper is to share the results of a global inquiry into the outcomes and impacts of action research (AR) projects. This is one of a series of papers associated with the Evaluative Study of Action Research (ESAR), an initiative launched by an international team of seven action researchers, to understand if the espoused intents…

This evaluation is a conceptual framework that has been analyzed in the hope that can help research related an evaluation of the curriculum. The Model of evaluation used was CIPPO model. CIPPO Model consists of "context," "input," "process," "product," and "outcomes." On the dimension of the…

Evaluation denotes the monitoring of progress towards desired goals and objectives. The purpose of this study was to evaluate educational quality at schools using Stufflebeam's CIPP evaluation model (1983). The population comprised the principal, heads of each wing and teachers of various branches of a Welfare School System in Rawalpindi. Data…

Based on the input-process-output-development (IPOD) framework, a survey of current doctoral students and doctoral graduates from six agricultural universities in China found that doctoral students in agriculture have higher graduation delay rates, relatively consistent academic backgrounds, a longer learning input time, and fewer foreign research…

Serious games foster the acquisition of complex problem-solving skills. Assessment of such skills should be in line with instruction, and within a serious game environment its content validity should equal face-to-face assessment. Research on assessment in serious gaming has remained rather scarce. This article shows how assessment can be…

In light of the emergence of statistical analysis techniques based on data mining in education sciences, and the potential they offer to detect non-trivial information in large databases, this paper presents a procedure used to detect factors linked to academic achievement in large-scale assessments. The study is based on a non-experimental,…

This paper presents the voice emotion recognition part of the FILTWAM framework for real-time emotion recognition in affective e-learning settings. FILTWAM (Framework for Improving Learning Through Webcams And Microphones) intends to offer timely and appropriate online feedback based upon learner's vocal intonations and facial expressions in order…
