The project Expert external evaluation
|
|
Expert external evaluation complements other, already developed and established methods of providing quality in adult education organisations that either participate in the projects Offering Quality Education to Adults (OQEA) and Quality Counsellors at the Slovenian Institute for Adult Education or evaluate quality by following the other quality models that exist in Slovenia.
We developed the concept of expert external evaluation in 2011 as an upgrade or completion to the two SIAE incentives:
- The green OQEA logo and
- Award for developing quality in adult education.
In 2012 we piloted expert external evaluation in two educational organisations.
In 2012, for the successful realisation we also:
- developed and realised an educational seminar for educational organisations during which they obtained the necessary information for the participation in expert external evaluation;
- developed and realised a two-day training for expert external evaluators where we trained them to carry out expert external evaluations;
- prepared and formulated all the necessary proposals of documents and instruments (the proposal drafts on the expert external evaluation, the proposals of the educational organisation’s self-evaluation etc.) for preparation and realisation of the visit to the participating educational organisation;
- planned, coordinated and carried out two expert external evaluations,
- prepared an evaluation workshop to evaluate how far we have come.
In 2013, we carried out expert external evaluations in three adult education organisations. For this purpose we:
- conduct an educational seminar for educational organisations in May,
- conduct a training for expert external evaluators in September,
- carried out expert external evaluations in October and November,
- conduct an evaluation workshop in December.
