Talbot, Robert W.

Higher Education Management, v4 n3 p346-58 1992

A new technique for evaluating postsecondary education courses and improve instruction uses directed group discussion based on formative evaluation of the course concerned. It draws on Delphi technique and nominal group process but is more easily administered and produces higher user satisfaction. Its reliability has been confirmed in educational and industrial applications. (Author/MSE)
