Computerized Faculty Evaluation System
The CFES or the Computerized Faculty Evaluation System will give way to easy collection and more accurate data analysis of faculty evaluation in lesser time. The Computerized Faculty Evaluation System is a paperless process in which the evaluator (students, co-teacher, and supervisor) will use the computer and the system to evaluate the teacher.
Teaching performance evaluation is a necessary step in ensuring good instruction. Traditionally teaching performance evaluation is used as a tool to apprise teachers on how they are doing their job. Performance is defined as a set of outcomes produce during a certain period of time, and does not refer to the traits, personal characteristics or competencies of the performer. It is designed to identify teaching strength and weaknesses.
Teacher’s evaluation is widely understood to the most effective tool to improve the quality of instruction in schools. Timely and accurate information is useful in virtually every stage of the decision making process. Problem are identified when information reveals that some aspects of performance can be place in the hands of decision makers, the sooner problems can be corrected, lessening the potentially undesirable or costly consequences to the organization.
Objectives of the study
- To reduce time spent in administering of questionnaire to respondents.
- To secure the results of faculty evaluation.
- To generate accurate results.
- To produce on time reports.
- To convert the manual process of faculty evaluation into a computerized faculty evaluation system.
Significance of the Study
The person who will benefit the Computerized Faculty Evaluation System are the following:
Administrator – the administrators of the institution can now focus on studying the performance of individual teachers to identify their strengths, potentials, and weaknesses that are based on a valid and reliable faculty performance record and effectively use the data in merit pay and promotion decisions. This system will help the person in-charge to lessen their time spent in processing, encoding, and computing the evaluation.
Students – the system provides the students with the freedom of expressing their appreciation and recognition of good faculty members and a means to convey their sentiments and concerns about their non- performing faculty members without the restrictions of time and space.
Faculty – the system will provide an instant result of the evaluation to the faculty that will help them improve their teaching methodologies. The system will provide a score for every category of the evaluation and displays the strong and weak point(s) of the faculty.
System Users:
The system can be accessed by 3 different user groups, each group has its own access level and user accounts.
The 3 groups are:
Administrator, Students and Teacher
System Features:
Administrator can manage the following records:
Student Information – only admin can create, update and delete information
Faculty Information – admin can update, delete and create new record of faculty
Subjects – manages subject information (create, update delete)
Questions – revised and updates the list of questions.
Reports – only admin can generate and print results of faculty evaluation
Students
Students can login to their account and rate or evaluate the teacher.
Students can also post a comment to their teachers.
Teachers
Teachers or faculty can login to their account and view their result and view comments.
Development Tools
Computerized Faculty Evaluation System is available in Visual Basic and PHP-MySQL
Computerized Faculty Evaluation System in Visual Basic
This is a network based system or LAN based application developed in Visual Basic and MS Access.
Computerized Faculty Evaluation System in PHP and MySQL
A web version of the system is also available upon request.
You may use this as your capstone or thesis project and at the same time it will perfectly work in a real scenario or in an actual faculty evaluation.
