Establishing a Sustainable Process to Measure Learner Performance

Abstract

The quality of student learning and academic rigor is central to higher education. Nonetheless, colleges often prioritize metrics such as enrollment and graduation rates or use assessment data to solely fulfill accreditation requirements. The Academic Quality Assurance (AQA) team at a university ventured to expand the academic quality data landscape to learn more about student achievement. The paper shares the team’s journey to collect and report on student performance data for continuous improvement of academic programs. Specifically, this paper includes the methods to promote a culture of assessment by incorporating new concepts into the AQA process: Data visualization and storytelling with data. This paper includes the methodology to collect and report on data, samples of the systems and visualizations used, and the challenges faced in the context of people, process, and tools.

Heuristic Strategies: Achieving Influence Motivation with Success to Design Industrial Products in Projects from the Department of Architectural Education and Design

“…Thus, it has seen obviously that learning with heuristic strategies can build up confidence in the systemic thinking procedure for solving the problems in their projects, and it is one part of the desirable characteristics of the design education students in Faculty of Industrial Education and Technology from King Mongkut's Institute of Technology Ladkrabang. Thus, the students should cope with the standard of the curriculum of design education, and when considering from the differences of confident scores in personal project ordering from the most level to the least level: 1) Management step with plan 2) Planning step with requirements 3) Satisfaction to learning pattern 4) Expression of intelligence 5) Searching problems 6) Correctness and the possibility to respond to problems and other issues [47][48][49].…”

Developing Instrument to Measure Student’s Capability for Future Work in Industry 4.0 at Vocational Education Culinary Program

“…Culinary education students, prepared for industry 4.0 workforce, both hotels, restaurants, small and medium businesses, they will be faced with these challenges. Therefore a good preparation for capability, one of which is providing food literacy ad numeracy is very necessary but also there is an urgency about mapping the curriculum,accroding to [42] the curriculum should be reviewed regularly to align with the new competency framework.…”

Cognitive Development, Learning Strategies and Academic Performance in The First Stage of University Education

“…Students use information acquisition strategies more frequently (42%), such as underlining, repetition and re-reading; in second place in frequency of use those of Processing Support (38%); in third place those of Recov-ery (37%) and in last place the Coding strategies (30%) that are used to reconstruct the information, make it meaningful and be understood. [11] Reinforce in their experimental design work with post-test and control group, applied to a group of 40 first-year university students, that Recovery is the set of actions by which the performance of students is better in terms of the amount of information retrieved and therefore, the higher scores refer to better results in the tests or exams applied long-term. In particular, they advocate the primacy of memory for learning, in relation to meaningful learning.…”
