An Expert Comparison of Accreditation Support Tools for the Undergraduate Computing Programs
Journal Title: International Journal of Advanced Computer Science & Applications - Year 2018, Vol 9, Issue 9
Abstract
Realizing continuous quality improvement within educational programs is a challenging task. However, there exist various assessment tools and models that help in this regard. This paper explores the features and capabilities of three major international accreditation support tools and compares their strengths and weaknesses. The investigated tools include EvalTools, CLOSO, and WEAVEonline. Two education quality experts performed a thorough comparison of the three tools across a range of criteria including coverage of the continuous quality improvement cycle, usability of the system, learning curve of faculty, data entry, data protection and privacy, among others. The paper highlights the advantages offered by each tool and identifies the gaps in respect to the continuous quality improvement cycle.
