Considerable work has been done on student evaluation of teaching/teachers, but reservations remain about its use for summative
purposes. Student ratings are not universally accepted as being reliable, nor can they provide really meaningful information.
Qualitative comments can provide a better understanding but they tend not to be user-friendly from lack of structure and connectedness.
This study attempts to devise a method for ‘quantifying’ students’ comments to increase their usefulness in complementing/confirming
ratings. The quantified results enable the profile construction of what students regard as an effective/ineffective teacher,
and enable identification of strengths and weaknesses. Our findings counter some commonly held assumptions, including those
which held that high ratings are dependent on small class size and ‘dumbing down’ of courses and the consequent expectation
of high grades. The findings also indicate that students value teaching quality more than teacher characteristics, suggesting
their ability to make valid judgments about teaching effectiveness.

The ability of triadimefon(TDM),a triazolic fungicide,to alter the biochemical constituents and thereby minimizing the days required for sprouting in white yam(Dioscorea rotundata Poir.) tubers during storage under(30±2) °C in the dark,was studied.TDM at 20 mg/L was given to tubers by dipping the tubers in treatment solution containing 20 mg/L TDM on 10,25 and 40 d after storage(DAS).Starch,sugars,protein,amino acid contents as well as protease and α-amylase activities were estimated on 15,30 and 45 DAS from two physiological regions viz.,apical and basal regions of the tubers.In normal conditions(control) sprouting occurred on 70 to 80 DAS.The starch content decreased,while protein,amino acid,sugar contents and protease and α-amylase activities were increased due to TDM treatment and led to early sprouting. 相似文献

The relationship between assessment and learning in higher education often comes down to a single thing: a grade. Despite widespread criticism of grades as inexact tools, whose overemphasis undermines student learning and negatively affects student well-being, they continue to be the norm in the assessment of student learning. This paper analyses an alternate form of assessment: so-called ‘gradeless learning’. This study theoretically and geographically contextualises the recent implementation of a gradeless learning policy at a large public university in Asia, and presents findings from a student opinion survey about the policy. The paper shows that respondents overwhelmingly understand and often agree with the central claims of gradeless learning, including its potential to ease students into college life, allow them to make more daring choices in their studies and even develop as lifelong learners. However, the aim of relieving stress among one group of students has increased stress for others. The study explains the circumstances that create this divergence in student stress levels, which are both locally specific and common to all gradeless systems. The paper concludes by discussing the effectiveness of the gradeless system in achieving its aims and suggesting future research avenues. 相似文献
