Ikuta, Takashi; Gotoh, Yasushi
International Association for Development of the Information Society, Paper presented at the International Association for Development of the Information Society (IADIS) International Conference on Cognition and Exploratory Learning in Digital Age (CELDA) (Madrid, Spain, Oct 19-21, 2012)
Niigata University has started to develop the Niigata University Bachelor Assessment System (NBAS). The objective is to have groups of teachers belonging to educational programs discuss whether visualized learning outcomes are comprehensible. Discussions based on teachers' subjective judgments showed in general that visualized learning outcomes express students' natural abilities and, unlike simple GPA and grade data, are conducive to grasping the level of success in reaching attainment targets. In future, it will be necessary to examine amendments to weighting and lessons and assessments that correspond to weighting. (Contains 1 figure.)
