• Electroanalytical laboratory equipment

G. Course Evaluation and Improvement Processes 1 Strategies for Obtaining Student Feedback on Effectiveness of Teaching

• Course feedback by a predesigned questionnaire by the e-TU site (compulsory) 2 Other Strategies for Evaluation of Teaching by the Instructor or by the Department

• A statistical regular review and analysis of the students’ achievement in the department.

• Prepare a questionnaire which should be filled by the students at the early stage of the course in order to define the weakness and strength in delivering the subjects.

3 Processes for Improvement of Teaching

• The administration commits to provide both the necessary resources to initiate and sustain the program and appropriate incentives for faculty members to participate.

• The faculty members are encouraged to attend workshops related to teaching and learning • Provide the teaching staff members with all the references and electronic resources

4. Processes for Verifying Standards of Student Achievement (e.g. check marking by an independent member teaching staff of a sample of student work, periodic exchange and remarking of tests or a sample of assignments with staff at another institution)

• Check marking of the answer sheets of the final exam by other staff • Check progress level of the students (this can be done by an independent teacher by reviewing

students’ records and comparing the students’ work with another from a different institute).

5 Describe the planning arrangements for periodically reviewing course effectiveness and planning for improvement. Reviewing:

• Review and analyze collective student performance in the course. • Comparison between boys and girls (students) performance. • Obtain feedback from both students and instructors involved in the course. • Comparison between the performances of students in the current course with the students who

took the course in the past two years. • Compare the syllabus with the syllabus of standard universities.

Planning for improvement:

• Update of course contents to meet the current students' educational needs. • Use of e learning facilities to enhance student abilities to learn and improve.
