Abstract

Course evaluation serves as helpful information to improve the quality of college education and improve lectures. This study derived the factors through preceding research and FGI to explore the factors that constitute course evaluation and identified the relative importance and priority of the factors through the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). For this, it derived five factors and 15 evaluation items as follows. To secure expertise and fairness in the factor development of course evaluation, the researcher conducted a questionnaire surveying students and teachers and collected a total of 20 valid data. The weight of each evaluation item was calculated based on the data that had been verified for consistency. The analysis concluded that students rated class content, class method, class operation, class evaluation, and class plan as the critical factors in the order of importance, while teachers evaluated class content, class operation, class method, class evaluation, and class plan as important, in that order. Based on the results of this study, I hope that various analyses and studies will be conducted to improve the efficiency and reliability of course evaluation for the quality management of college education.

강의평가는 대학교육의 질을 향상시키고 수업을 개선하는데 유용한 정보로 활용된다. 본 연구는 강의평가를 구성하는 요인을 탐색하고자 선행연구와 FGI를 통해 구성요인을 도출하고 계층분석법(AHP: Analytic Hierarchy Process)을 통해 요인간 상대적 중요도 및 우선순위를 파악하였다. 이를 위해 5개의 구성요인과 15개의 평가항목을 도출하였다. 강의평가 요인개발의 전문성과 공정성을 확보하기 위해 학생과 교원을 대상으로 설문을 실시하여 총 20부의 유효한 자료를 수집하였고, 일치도 검증을 완료한 자료를 토대로 각 평가항목의 가중치를 산출하였다. 분석 결과 강의평가 요인구성에 있어서 학생은 수업 내용, 수업 방법, 수업 운영, 수업 평가, 수업 계획 순으로, 교원은 수업 내용, 수업 운영, 수업 방법, 수업 평가, 수업 계획 순으로 중요하다고 평가하였다. 본 연구 결과를 바탕으로 대학교육의 질 관리 차원에서 강의평가의 효율성과 신뢰성 향상을 위해 다양한 분석과 연구가 있기를 기대한다.
