“…IR is primarily composed of three fields: enrollment management IR, research IR, and management IR. Actually, we developed some novel KPIs for enrollment management IR and visualization methods to evaluate the quality of education in higher education [3][13][14] [15]. In higher education, evidence-based evaluation or improvement is very important.…”

“…In the U.S.A., Prof. Joe Saupe published the article "The functions of institutional research" in 1981, in which IR was defined as follows, "Institutional research is research conducted within an institution of higher education to provide information which supports institutional planning, To perform university reform in Kobe Tokiwa University, we established a team called "Significant Other Groups (SOGRs)" comprising students, graduate students, and third parties. In 2020, we presented our report on a new visualization of competency-based education (CBE) in IR of higher education [3]. The combination of SOGRs and the new visualization led to the new visualization of learning outcomes of students in Kobe Tokiwa University [4].…”

In recent years, most Japanese universities have started to operate departments of institutional research (IR). In IR fields, Key Performance Indicator (KPI) is important to evaluate the quality of education. Eduinformatics, a novel interdisciplinary field proposed by us, provides good analyses that will help us to solve educational problems. This paper emphasizes that we have to consider whether the evaluation of KPIs is the best method to check the quality of education in universities. We discuss the problem of evaluating KPIs to check the quality of higher education and suggest that we have to recognize and understand the limitations of evaluating KPIs. We propose that it is better to evaluate the combination of both KPIs and signs of changes in students to improve the quality of education.
