Description
This report has been written to contribute to the current debates about educational quality in undergraduate education in the UK, and about the need to justify increases in resources on the basis of indicators of educational quality. This report will identify a range of dimensions of quality and examine the extent to which each could be considered a valid indicator, with reference to the available research evidence. It attempts to identify which kinds of data we should take seriously and which we should be cautious of placing weight on. Some of these dimensions we might be wise to pay attention to currently lack a solid evidence base, especially in relation to research carried out in the UK context, and so the report also identifies priorities for research and for data collection and analysis."
