A systematic evaluation procedure has been conducted for courses at TU Berlin since 2006. This has been governed by binding evaluation regulations since 2009. The evaluation procedures were re-organized as part of the system accreditation process, resulting in new Quality Management Regulations in 2020 that firmly integrate course evaluations into TU Berlin’s quality management system.
Foundation: Course evaluations at TU Berlin are based on the subsidiarity principle, meaning their organization and implementation are the responsibility of the faculties. As a central organizational unit, Strategic Controlling only serves a regulatory, controlling, or supporting function in the organization and execution of the evaluations if the faculties are unable to do so. Additionally, Strategic Controlling analyzes the process data on the implementation and quality of course evaluations in the faculties and examines joint standards.
Objectives: The primary objective of course evaluations is to provide instructors with feedback on their teaching. For the faculty administration/deans of studies, the evaluations serve as quality control of the teaching at a faculty to then initiate appropriate measures where necessary (e.g. module changes). Evaluation results are also strongly aggregated and used to determine central measures for the entire University. The focus here is on creating an institutional memory of the entire course evaluation process as well as enabling measures regarding teaching at a faculty (e.g. personnel resources) and setting standards that all faculties follow.
Course evaluations at TU Berlin are conducted using the Evasys evaluation system.
