Self Assessment

The present study is a literature review of 37 empirical studies from Greece and internationally of the last decade and aims at investigating the contribution of learner self-assessment to: a. enhancement of learning motivation, b. improvement of academic performance/learning, c. development of self-regulating learning and d. raise of self-esteem. According to the findings, enhancement of learning motivation as an outcome of learner self-assessment process has been identified in Greek Higher education, in Secondary education in Physics and in Primary education in English, whereas internationally has been identified in Secondary education in English and Physical education. In Greece, improvement of academic performance/learning as an outcome of learner self-assessment has been found in Higher education, in Secondary education in Physics and in Primary education in English, whereas internationally at all levels of education, in almost all subjects of Secondary education and in Primary education in Language Arts, English and Mathematics. Development of self-regulating learning has been identified in Higher education in Greece and internationally, whereas in Secondary education in Geography and Geometry only internationally. Furthermore, raise of student’s self-esteem as an outcome of self-assessment has been found internationally, in Secondary education in Religious education and in Greek Primary education in English language learning. Moreover, self-assessment process has also been examined internationally in non-formal education where English is taught as a second language with positive outcomes in performance/learning. Finally, self-assessment is implemented through various practices and tools such as rubrics, checklist, scripts, think boards, reflective journals, mind maps and in combination with learning or teaching models.

É fato que o ensino superior privado no Brasil, vem passando por grandes transformações ao longo dos últimos 20 anos. Neste cenário o presente artigo, tem como objetivo compreender os principais desafios da gestão no ambiente universitário. Para isso, realizamos uma pesquisa qualitativa do tipo estudo de caso, onde utilizamos análise de documentos e questionário para coleta dos dados. Consideramos que o processo de autoavaliação realizado pela IES atrelado ao conhecimento do PDI pode ser um bom indicativo de possíveis saídas para a melhoria dos resultados e para a superação dos desafios apresentados pelos coordenadores de curso. AbstractIt is a fact that private higher education in Brazil has undergone major transformations over the last 20 years. In this scenario, this article aims to understand the main challenges of management in the university environment. For this, we carried out a qualitative research of the type of case study, where we used document analysis and questionnaire for data collection. We believe that the self-assessment process carried out by the IES, linked to the knowledge of the PDI, can be a good indicator of possible outcomes for the improvement of the results and to overcome the challenges presented by the course coordinators.KeywordsManagement Processes; Private Faculty; Challenges of University Management.

Team Project

Purpose: Motivated by perceived dissatisfaction within our lab’s changed working environment brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, we performed a self-assessment of our lab culture through anonymous surveys and live sessions. Methods: In Survey 1, we asked each lab member to identify and rank up to 10 values that are important for a healthy lab environment. They were then asked to rate how well the lab embodied those values at two time points: before the COVID-19 pandemic while working onsite, and at the time of the survey while working remotely (10 months into the pandemic). In a series of live group sessions, we reviewed relevant literature and the survey results to finalize ten themes. We then reflected on each theme and proposed action items to address any deficiencies. Finally, we conducted Survey 2 after the self-assessment to judge the group's finalized themes, implemented changes, and overall satisfaction with the assessment process. Results: Themes identified were attitude, accountability, teamwork/collaboration, communication, diversity/inclusion, emotional intelligence, integrity, training, well-being, and adaptability in crisis-management. All lab members liked the self-assessment process and felt their voices were heard. On average, there was a 1 2 % increase in satisfaction across all themes from the start to end of the lab assessment. Conclusion: We successfully assessed the culture of our lab and subsequently improved lab member satisfaction. The success of this team project suggests that other scientific labs could benefit from similar interactive self-assessments.

Self Assessments

As higher education teachers, the authors are committed to supporting students in their epistemological development, specifically in their transition towards self-direction. In this chapter, they share their experience of using self-assessment in a Teacher Training Degree course as a way to both enhance self-direction and assess its development. A thematic analysis of the self-assessments of a sample of 30 students is carried out, and four themes are identified: 1) the degree of authorship, 2) the degree of elaboration, 3) “taking notice of” subtle levels of analysis, and 4) the identification of temporal milestones throughout the course. These themes enable a different pattern of mental complexity to be identified, a complexity which is understood as evidence of students' different degrees of self-direction. The findings are discussed in the light of developmental constructivist theories. In addition, some implications for education regarding the current debates on self-assessment literature are presented.

Employability skills for health graduates, and many disciplines within higher education, are considered vital to maximising their capacity to cope with the rapidly changing, uncertain and highly competitive labour market. Despite the increasing importance of developing generic skills for employability, there is a dearth of knowledge about how to support health students to develop generic skills as part of their formal education. The main objective of this two-phase study was to engage health students in the process of self-assessment of their generic skills and explore the potential of this process to facilitate their generic skills development. The first phase of this study engaged students in completing a self- assessment questionnaire, incorporating a validated set of industry-demanded skills with associated behaviours. In the second phase a subsection of respondents participated in focus group interviews that explored their perception of the self-assessment process in generic skills development. Students viewed themselves as having some capabilities to perform the generic skills, as well as their university studies contributing to the development of these skills. The qualitative data found that the self-assessment process prompted students to reflect on their abilities and further engage with developing these skills. This study supports the evidence for contextualising and embedding a process of self-assessment of generic skills into the formal curricula to help better prepare health students for their future work.

Trabajo Colaborativo

El proceso de autoevaluación y evaluación de una institución educativa, por parte de un organismo acreditador, implica que un grupo de académicos, directivos, administrativos y personal de apoyo trabajen de forma colaborativa para el logro de los objetivos, sin embargo, este trabajo debe ser organizado por un pequeño grupo de personas, una comisión de acreditación o un coordinador general, por lo que en este artículo se presenta una propuesta metodológica para la división y organización de las actividades involucradas, así como de los roles de los que conforman la comisión. Así mismo, considerando que una de las principales tareas durante el proceso de autoevaluación es la recopilación de información conformada por una gran cantidad de documentos físicos, carpetas, archivos y documentos aislados, se sugieren algunas herramientas digitales para que esta actividad implique un menor esfuerzo y una mayor organización, además de tener mayor transparencia y colaboración. The process of self-evaluation and evaluation of an educational institution, by an accrediting institute, implies that a group of academics, managers, administrative staff and support staff work collaboratively to achieve the objectives, however, this work must be organized by a small group of people, an accreditation commission or a general coordinator, so this article presents a methodological proposal for the division and organization of the activities involved, as well as the roles of those who make up the commission. Likewise, considering that one of the main tasks during the self-assessment process is the collection of information consisting of a large number of physical documents, folders, files and isolated documents, somedigital tools are suggested so that this activity involves less effort and a greater organization, in addition to having greater transparency and collaboration.
