Technology-enhanced learning is developing in diverse forms in Higher Education (HE) and Vocational Educational Training (VET) across Europe, reflecting the complex interrelation between cultures and education. As Dr Ulf Ehlers states in the SEVAQ handbook: “…overarching approaches and strategies are needed in order to develop quality in a holistic way, taking into account organisational contexts and stakeholders in a participatory way.” The original SEVAQ project merged two widely recognised evaluation and quality approaches – the Kirkpatrick and European Foundation for Quality Management models – to produce a dynamic, multilingual tool for the generation of learner-centred self-evaluation questionnaires. 

 

SEVAQ+, supported by the European Commission Lifelong Learning Programme takes the approach further, building on the tool’s potential to support quality assurance in technology-enhanced learning, pinpointing areas for improvement, tracking evolution and enabling benchmarking. 

Participants of the workshop will learn about the concept of holistic self-evaluation from the point of view of manager and course designer roles. The SEVAQ+ tool will be presented to the participants with the possibility to test the potential of the tool and approach for their own organisation.
