Chapter 1

Introduction

1.1 Significance of program self-Assessment Self-assessment is arguably the most powerful means for a tertiary education organization (TEO) to understand and improve its educational performance. It is a systematic process of evaluating the various aspects of institution or academic programs including the major QA areas in respect of national qualifications framework and criteria whether quality standards are being met. With an objective of further improvement SA collects information and evidences from the stakeholders reviews those in order to identify the weaknesses and areas need further improvement to enhance quality of teaching learning and education. Self-Assessment does not mean that evidences of quality education are not available. It is directed towards coherent and clearly articulated goals to inform decision-making and operational practices. It also provides direction to continuous improvement through gradual internalization of the standards and good practices.

TEOs generate and gather a large amount of data. Analyzing and making sense of this data enables better decision-making. Good self-assessment is only possible when a range of people in the organization are involved, e.g. teachers, non-teaching staff, students and other stakeholders such as employers. Self-assessment enables a tertiary education organization to find out:  what outcomes, learners are achieving and how well  the value of the outcomes to stakeholders including learners  the effectiveness of processes in contributing to these outcomes. By identifying strengths and weaknesses, a TEO can develop and implement an improvement strategy resulting in actual, worthwhile improvements. The situation of higher education in Bangladesh is very despondent. Bangladesh still is not producing good human resources for its society. Now-a-days Self-Assessment becomes a very important exercise to the academic institutions for continuous improvement and quality assurance in education. It refers to a comprehensive and systematic process of collecting and analyzing information from major stakeholders on the QA areas and related aspects of the educational institution. The SA process allows the organization to identify the strengths and areas in which improvements are required for quality education. It also provides information to participants, allowing them to evaluate and understand the overall quality of academic programs. Self-assessment provides a direction and guidelines to prepare comprehensive improvement plan addressing the issues critical to quality assurance. The understanding and practice of self- assessment promotes developmental process. It is never exhaustive in its ability to grow. It enables the participants of the program and/or institution to observe the situation precisely and to identify the deficiencies between expectations and actual performances (Loacker, 2004b). Self-Assessment Report on Drama and Dramatics department, JU. 2016

The general objective of the Self-Assessment is to improve the quality of education addressing the needs of the major stakeholders and national relevance. The specific objectives of self-assessment exercise are to:  Identify learning needs: Employability of the graduates and ability to contribute to organizations and national development are very critical to ensure quality in education. Education is all about gaining a set of skills to match with the requirements for employment, career development, lifelong learning and socioeconomic development as well. As such, it is very important to understand what the students need to learn to develop the required skills.  Assess the teaching learning capacity of the institution: Teaching learning is the core of all academic institutions. It is very important to assess the capacity of teaching learning to attain the learning objectives.  Review the existing procedures: To provide quality education in respect of changing needs of the society, it is important to measure the effectiveness of existing procedures and provisions in practice in the university.  Identify the areas need to be improved: Quality in education is the outcome of a comprehensive process composed of several distinctive but interrelated elements. All the elements or component of the process must be up to the mark to meet the quality standard. Self-assessment is to identify the areas of the process or individual practitioners, which need reinforcement and further improvement to enhance the capacity of the institutions or individuals to make the total system effective to provide and maintain quality in education.  Create a basis for external assessment and validation  Provide guidelines or direction to the program offering entity or to the University for strategic planning.

1.2 Process of Assessment

Receiving the written directives from the Director of the IQAC, the Chairman of department of Drama and Dramatics arranged a meeting inviting the faculty members of the entity to constitute a program self-assessment committee. In the meeting, the entity constituted the program self-assessment committee (PSAC) by interested, experienced and qualified faculty as per the provisions stated in IQAC Operations Manual. The Chairman of entity sent the PSAC to the Director, IQAC in writing for further necessary actions.

The Director of the IQAC placed the PSACs received from the entity for approval of the Vice Chancellor and informs the Head of the SAC. According to the activity plan, the Head of the PSAC, in consultation with the Chairman of the entity, organized an awareness building workshop on Self-assessment and Quality Assurance in Higher Education. This workshop is for clear understanding about the SA process and team building. (Annexure 1, 2) The faculty members along with the SA committee carefully reviewed the survey tools (questionnaire) for major stakeholders i.e., students, alumni, employers, academic staff, non-academic staff following the self-assessment criteria and standard. (Annexure 3-7)

The Self-Assessment Committee managed the overall survey administration, data entry, analysis, and report writing. Data Analysis has been conducted by using statistical software such as IBM SPSS Statistics 22.

1.3 Overview of the University

Jahangirnagar University is a residential public university of Bangladesh. In the 1960s the Government of Pakistan had a decision to establish a residential university in East Pakistan in the same nature to that of the one built in Islamabad. To ease the student pressure of the University of Dhaka, the Education Department of the Government of East Pakistan framed a plan in June 1964 to establish a residential university near Dhaka. In June 1965 the Executive Board of the National Economic Council approved the plan. On the basis of this plan a place called Salna in Gazipur district was first earmarked and the foundation stone was laid by Field Marshall Ayub Khan, the then President of Pakistan. Due to some administrative difficulties, this site was abandoned and the present site was chosen, and accordingly 750 acres of land had been allotted for the university and the land was taken away from the Government Dairy Farm, east of the present campus in 1967. Later on about 50 acres of the University land was taken away from the Government Dairy Farm again in 1967. The university project started its implementation in April 1968 as Jahangirnagar Muslim University and Professor Surat Ali Khan was made the first Project Director. Jahangirnagar University was formally launched on 12 January 1970 under the Jahangirnagar Muslim University Ordinance, 1970 and this day is observed as University Day. At the time of starting, its name was Jahangirnagar Muslim University, and the initial plan was to operate this university as like as Aligarh Muslim University. It operated as a project until 1973, when the 'Jahangirnagar Muslim University Act' was amended as the 'Jahangirnagar University Act'. But after the independence of Bangladesh, its name changed as Jahangirnagar University under the act of Jahangirnagar University Act' 1973. (Annexure 8, 9)

On 20 August 1970, an ordinance was promulgated to start the academic programmes of the university. Professor Mofizuddin Ahmed, the then member of the Central Public Service Commission of Pakistan and formerly Professor of Chemistry, University of Dhaka, was appointed as the first Vice-Chancellor. He joined as vice-Chancellor on 24 September 1970. The earlier aim was to establish this university as a science oriented university. For that purpose five faculties, namely, Faculty of Arts and Humanities, Faculty of Social Sciences, Faculty of Biological Sciences, Faculty of Basic Sciences, Faculty of Applied Sciences were earmarked. However, the university was started later with 4 honours departments called viz Economics, Geography, Statistics and Mathematics. The university started with 21 teachers in these departments. The first group of students, a total of 150, was enrolled in four Honors departments. The initial class was held on 4 January 1971. Its formal inauguration was delayed until 12 January 1971, when the university was formally launched by Rear Admiral S M Ahsan, the then Governor of East Pakistan and the Chancellor of the University. The university started in full swing when Professor Syed Ali Ahsan joined as the second Vice-Chancellor in 2 February 1972. The main purpose of the University is promoting research in different fields as well as preparing the students to meet the challenges of future day. The university has 16,781 students, 676 teachers, and 1,430 other employees. At present there are 34 departments under six faculties: Mathematical and Physical Science, Biological Science, Social Science, Arts and Humanities, Business Studies and Law & Justice and two institutes: Institute of Business Administration & Institute of Information Technology.

Chapter 2 Governance

Governance at university encompasses the organizational structures, legislative framework and processes through which, policies and programs are developed, managed and delivered. Governance facilitates the achievement of the stated mission and objectives of the university. The central administration and statutory bodies like the Vice Chancellor, Board of Trustees, Syndicate, and Academic Council are the powerful actors in university‟s governance system. (Annexure 8-16)

This criterion describes the use of mission, goals and objectives of the University, first. Second, it explains the overall objectives used for different areas such as teaching & learning, research and development, academic administration and so on. Finally, the criterion describes the role of stakeholders in curriculum management, means of achieving objectives, and the role of University, Faculty and Department in the degree program management.

2.1 Program Management Good governance and quality assurance depends on the integrated approach of management by the statutory bodies and individual units of the university. It needs commitment, sense of responsibility, team work, collaboration and coordination among the top management, academic, administrative and support units of the university. The University must have an organizational structure and organizational units with defined responsibilities in compliance with the legal framework under which the university is established. The institution/program offering entity must review and ratify the policies and procedures periodically with an objective of further improvement. Code of conduct for the students and code of conduct for staff members and disciplinary rules and regulations should be well defined and well communicated. Mission and objectives of an institution or program offering entity describe the purposes and stakeholders of the institution and program offering entity. Mission and objectives are defined in respect of national relevance incompliance with the legal requirements, QA requirements and external reference standards. Intended learning outcomes must satisfy the mission and objectives of the program and institution. The opinion of Academic Staff, Non-Academic Staff, Student and Alumni about Vision, Mission and Objectives of the entity are given below:

Table 2.1 indicates that about 66% Academic Staff and 85% Alumni at least agree that Vision, Mission and Objectives of the entity are clearly stated which is not a significant proportion. On the other hand, 16.7% Academic Staff and 5.4% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. But all Non-academic Staffs (100%) are strongly agree on this statement. Also, we observe that about 75%, 71%, 5%, 36%, 46%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that Vision, Mission and Objectives of the entity are clearly stated. Also 9%, 21%, 77%, 42%, 53%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on this issue. It is 2 evident from the above table and  test of homogeneity of respondents opinion that Student opinions vary from year to year which is statistically significant (p-value=0.001, 2   89.21 test, Appendix-I, Table I). This statistical result indicates that Senior Students opinion is more realistic than Junior Students opinion. We also observe that Non-Academic Staffs are not very much familiar with entity‟s Vision, Mission and Objectives. For a well-defined and well-structured as well as good understanding of the meaning of Vision Mission of the entity, we expect almost 100% respondents opinion are likely to be in favor of the statement. In fact, Vision, Mission and Objectives of the entity mentioned only in syllabus (treated as curriculum). Thus we may conclude that Vision, Mission and Objectives of the entity are not clearly stated and well-practiced.

Table 2.2 indicates that about 66% Academic Staff, 50% Alumni and 100% Non- academic Staff at least agree that the Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) satisfy the stated Mission and Objectives. On the other hand, 25% Academic Staff and 19% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 27%, 62%, 16%, 15%, 91%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that the Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) satisfy the stated Mission and Objectives. But about 18%, 16%, 50%, 58%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year Students at least disagree on this issue. Above table indicates that Students opinion are very much inconsistence. Thus we may conclude that the Intended Learning Outcomes (ILOs) do not satisfy the stated Mission and Objectives.

On the other hand, 83% Academic Staff and 40% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 38%, 9%, 5%, 60%, 31%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, and MS Students at least agree that the entity has adequate infrastructures to satisfy its Mission and Objectives. Also about 47%, 66%, 94%, 73%, 60%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on this issue. We observe that none of the 4th year Students agree with this 2 statement. It is evident from the above table and  test of homogeneity of respondents opinion that Student opinions vary from year to year and Senior Students opinion is more realistic than Junior Students opinion which is statistically highly significant (p- 2 value=0.000,   56.55 test, Appendix-I, Table II). Since a significant number of respondents at least disagree on this issue hence we may conclude that the entity has inadequate infrastructures to satisfy its Mission and Objectives.

But about 22%, 39%, 83%, 63%, 46%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on this issue. Since a significant number of respondents at least disagree with this statement hence we may conclude that the disciplinary rules and regulations are not explicitly defined and well circulated. All academic and administrative affairs are not strictly maintained in compliance with rules and regulations to ensure good governance in the entity.

It is evident from the above table and  test of homogeneity of respondents opinion that Student opinions vary from year to year which is statistically significant (p- 2 value=0.000,   76.74 test, Appendix I, Table III). This statistical result indicates that Senior Students opinion is more realistic than Junior Students opinion. Most of the Students disagree that results are published timely in compliance with the ordinance. So this process should be developed.

It is evident from the above table that Student opinions vary from year to year. Since some respondents disagree with this issue it indicates that status of providing comprehensive guidelines to the students in advance by means of a brochure/handbook is not sufficient. Actually department provide syllabus to the students in advance.

It is evident from the above table that Student opinions vary from year to year and Senior Students opinion is more realistic than Junior Students opinion. For well communicated codes of conducts for students and employees, we expect almost 100% respondents‟ opinion is likely to be in favor of the statement. Thus we may conclude that codes of conduct for the students and employees are not well communicated.

2.2 Academic Documentation Meeting resolutions regarding Exam Committee, academic decisions are recorded properly. (Annexure 28-39) All other academic records e.g; lesson plan, marks, attendance registrar etc are documented and maintained properly. From the survey result, the opinion of Alumni, Student, Academic Staff and Non-academic Staff are given below:

On the other hand, about 75% Academic Staff, 100% Non-academic Staff and 63% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 25%, 22%, 5%, 5%, 15%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that the academic calendars are maintained strictly by the entity. But a suitable numbers of respondents about 59%, 25%, 94%, 94%, 76%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on this issue. For a good academic practice, we expect almost 100% respondents opinions are likely to be in favour of the statement. Thus we may conclude that department has inadequate good academic practiced and improper maintenance of existing good academic calendar.

Also, we observe that about 22%, 14%, and 7%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, and MS Students at least agree that the website is updated properly. But a significant proportion of respondents about 55%, 65%, 100%, 100%, 77%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on this issue. It is evident from the above table and 2  test of homogeneity of respondents opinion that Student opinions vary from year to 2 year which is statistically significant (p-value=0.023,   29.11 test, Appendix I, Table IV). This statistical result indicates that Senior Students opinion is more realistic than Junior Students opinion. Hence we may conclude that this innovative technique of communication should be improved for further use. The University should have a well- designed website, which will contain all sorts of information of the university and programs with easy access to the stakeholders.

It indicates that a proper way of addressing students‟ opinion is required. Well defined policy for mentoring and peer observation not exists and not followed properly. Feedback process from both teachers‟ and students‟ are not taken and duly not honored. 2.4 Internal quality assurances process Self-assessment process is an ongoing process. Evaluation of teachers by the students is not at regular phenomenon. Course evaluation by the teacher, students and head of the department is not usual practice after completion of each course. The opinion regarding decision making of Academic, Non-academic staff, Alumni and Student is given below:

For the fairness and transparency in academic decision making we expect almost 100% respondents‟ opinion is likely to be in favour of the statement. Students are not involved in academic decision making. Thus we may conclude that academic decisions are taken by the entity are not fair all time.

Chapter 3 Curriculum Design and Review Curriculum refers to a well-defined and prescribed course of studies, lessons and activities, which students must complete to fulfil the requirements for acquiring the degree. Self-Assessment will facilitate the integration of the procedure in redesigning, modernizing and updating the curricula to accommodate the job market requirements. The curriculum plays a crucial role in achieving the mission and objectives of the university including the intended learning outcomes and overall effectiveness of the programs. (Annexure 18-24)

This criterion of the program assessment describes the way curriculum was designed, reviewed periodically, stakeholder‟s involvement in the process, students required course load for the program, required emphasis for the program objectives or outcomes and serves the stakeholders purpose. Based on the issues mentioned, the respondents being asked on this criterion and the opinion of respondents are given below: 3.1 Need assessment A needs assessment is a systematic process for determining and addressing needs, or "gaps" between current conditions and desired conditions or "wants". The discrepancy between the current condition and wanted condition must be measured to appropriately identify the need. The need can be a desire to improve current performance or to correct a deficiency.

3.2 Curriculum design

Curriculum refers to a well-defined and prescribed course of studies, lessons and activities, which students must complete to fulfill the requirements for acquiring the degree. Curriculum is aligned with program objectives, intended learning outcomes through proper skill mapping. The curriculum plays a crucial role in achieving the mission and objectives of the university including the intended learning outcomes and overall effectiveness of the programs. Curriculum design has immense impact on the capacity of the education institutions and process to provide quality education. In designing a curriculum, an intellectual „journy‟ for the students is planned and a series of experiences is offered that will result in the student learing what the Department intend them to learn. In designing curriculum, stackeholdes should want to learn, and how they should learn. Designed curriculum must satisfy the mission and defined graduate profile. In the Department of Drama and Dramatics, a complete and well-designed curriculum is still absent. Instead of curriculum, the syllabus for B.A. (Hons.) and M.A is designed and reviewed regularly (Annexure 22-23). The Department of Drama and Dramatics offers four years‟ Bachelor of Arts (B.A) degree, one year‟ Masters of Arts (M.A) degree two years‟ Masters of Philosophy (M.Phil.) degree and three years‟ (regular) to five years‟ (part time) Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree in Drama and Dramatics (Annexure 24). The curriculum adopted by this department has been approved first by the Academic Committee of the Department, the Comittie of Courses, the Faculty of Arts, and finally passed by the Academic Council and the Syndicate of Jahangirnagar University (Annexure 8, 16).

We want to be distinctive by our primary concern with innovative contemporary performance and its return to the root of Bangla traditional Theatre. We focus on drama, theatre and performance of the twentieth century from a global perspective; we have keen interests in innovative performance, including experimental theatre, community and inter-cultural theatre, moreover we see drama and performance from a wider sense of ritual and social behavior. The Drama and Dramatics department, Jahangirnagar University is a leading department in our country which has already discovered the lost ancient theatre heritage of Bangla theatre. So, our objective is to provide an education in independent critical thinking and self- determined creative action. We aim at providing students with a considerate range of individual, practical and analytical skills, which can be successfully transmitted to a wide variety of working situations. The Department of Drama and Dramatics of Jahangirnagar University considers such topics as dramaturgy, space and scene design, art of performance and the relationship between theatre and other arts (including film, music, dance and fine art); It experiments the form and content of plays while it observes the historical trend of actor, director and designers too. This involves the study of plays as texts for performance; some techniques and methods for actors, directors and theatre technicians.

The main area of research – collectively and individually – is the field of contemporary Eastern and Western theatre and performances. Bangla traditional drama and performances and ethnic literature / culture of Bangladesh.

* Theatre / performance as innovative socio-cultural intervention.

Self-Assessment Report on Drama and Dramatics department, JU. 2016

Virtually all our individual research topics and themes are variously oriented in relation to these reference points, with the overall aim of production, new knowledge about the forms and functions of performance and theatre in the contemporary world.

As the interaction of practice and theory is a continuing preoccupation of all our work we would like to think that the Department has a distinctive "research culture", in the sense that many of its activities cohere as part of a co-ordinate project for the production and dissemination of new knowledge about performance.

As the will be re-interaction with eminent actors, directors, playwrights in different media a study of their works can be the topic of papers.

Departmental research interests include; the avant-garde; experimental theatre; the politics of performance; performance and democracy; the social applications of theatre / drama; the socio- cultural analysis of performance; the mediation of feminism in theatre; sexual politics in performance; the body in performance; contemporary Shakespeare; cross cultural, intercultural and multicultural theatre practice; dramaturgy; modern European and South Asian playwriting, specially of Bangladesh and West Bengal. Practice as research in the department falls into three main categories; work by professionals based on or visiting the department; work by students of the department with theatre groups outside the department. The first category includes work by innovative directors of Bangladesh and West Bengal. The second category includes projects with entertainment and group theatre of Bangladesh. The third category ranges from director / writer collaborations exploring new aesthetic languages, through devised pieces for unusual community venues, to innovations in body – based performance. The department wants to be active, especially in the promotion of national and international conferences and seminars.

Table 3.3 indicates that about 83% Academic Staff, 85% Alumni at least agree that courses in the curriculum is structured and arranged properly. On the other hand, about 5% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 57%, 87%, 83%, 26%, 100%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that courses in the curriculum is structured and arranged properly. But a suitable numbers of respondents about 3%, 9%, 16%, 57%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year and 4th year Students at least disagree on this issue. The present practice is content based syllabus which treated as curriculum. It needs to be need based curriculum. The objectives and outcomes are not yet clearly identified. Content needs to be categorized according to themes, units and modules. Text books need to be mentioned.

3.4 Curriculum load is optimum and induces no pressure

Table 3.2 indicates that about 91% Academic Staff, 59% Alumni at least agree that curriculum load is optimum and exerts no pressure. Also, about 42%, 71%, 83%, 26%, 84%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree on this issue. But a suitable numbers of respondents about 33%, 13%, 11%, 51%, 15%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree with this statement.

On the other hand, about 00% Academic Staff exactly disagree that curriculum load is optimum and exerts no pressure. It is evident from the above result that Students opinions vary from year to year. It indicates that curriculum load is not optimum and exerts pressure. There should be a program specific body or committee with representation from the major stakeholders to take care of design and redesign of curriculum. Designed curriculum with valid basis and all changes in the curriculum with specific reasons must be properly documented.

3.5 Curriculum alignment/skill mapping The respondents were asked whether teaching strategies and assessment strategies are clearly stated in the curriculum.

3.6 Curriculum review process University should have a well-defined procedure to design and review the curriculum of academic programs periodically. There must be a program specific body or committee with representation from the major stakeholders to take care of design and redesign of curriculum. To cope with the globalization, ongoing developments and changes across the environmental setting there is a strong need to integrate the concerns of major stakeholders in the curriculum.

The curriculum can be improved if it is updated periodically by thoroughly reviewing it. Opinions of the stakeholders and experts can be incorporated during review of the curriculum. From the survey the opinion of respondent are given below.

Chapter 4 Student Entry Qualifications, Admission procedure, Progress and Achievements

In this chapter we provided the opinion of the Academic Staff, Alumni and Student of whether the entry qualification, admission process and achievement of the students are maintained or not in the department of International Relationship. The organization of the present chapter is as follows. Section 4.1 presents entry qualifications, section 4.2 presents admission procedure and section 4.3 contains progress and achievement. 4.1 Entry Qualifications Choice of program and institution matters for career building of the graduates. At the same time, it is very important to have the eligibility of the students interested in higher education under a particular program. Quality of learners in terms of commitment and prerequisite qualifications are very important to afford the study load, understand the subject matter and comply with the program requirements. Entry requirements are the minimum qualifications, knowledge, skills and/or experience that an applicant must have in favor of his candidature for a particular academic program. Entry requirements must be well defined, measurable and communicable to the potential candidates for admission (Annexure 26, 27). The opinion of the Academic Staff, Alumni and Student about the entry qualification is given below:

Table 4.1: Entry of quality students Strongly Strongly Disagree Undecided Agree Respondent disagree agree (%) (%) (%) (%) (%) Academic 0.0 16.7 8.3 41.7 33.3 Alumni 1.8 10.7 8.9 50.0 28.6 1st Year 11.1 20.4 9.3 31.5 27.8 nd 2 Year 8.9 1.8 1.8 32.1 55.4 3rd Year 11.1 11.1 27.8 38.9 11.1

Table 4.1 indicates that about 74% Academic Staff and 78% Alumni at least agree that admission policy ensures entry of quality students in the department which is not a significant proportion. On the other hand, 16% Academic Staff exactly disagree with this statement. But 12% Academic Staff are neutral on this statement. Also, we observe that about 58%, 87%, 49%, 31%, 53%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that admission policy ensures entry of quality students in the department. Also 31%, 9%, 22%, 36%, 23% respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Student at least disagree on this issue. It indicates that eligibility of learners is not well defined. Admission policy should be improved.

4.2 Admission Procedure

Admission procedure is quite fair In Bangladesh, increasing number of students is coming for higher education from many streams of secondary education. Many of these students may have the entry qualifications to get admission into an academic program and university they are interested to study. But, it is a reality that opportunities for higher education in the preferred universities are always limited. Universities are required to select the candidates from a pool of diverse applicants who collectively will form the best possible group of students. Selection of the eligible candidates for the particular academic program is important to maintain quality in education. The admission process ensures fair treatment to all applicants with transparent and good practices and do not discriminate applicants in any way (Annexure 26, 27). The opinion of the Academic Staff, Alumni and Student about the admission process is given below:

Table 4.2 indicates that about 19% Academic Staff and 67% Alumni at least agree that admission procedure is quite fair. Also, about 56%, 81%, 66%, 52%, 76%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree with this statement. But 13%, 13%, 27%, 36%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year Students at least disagree on this issue. We observe that none of the Academic Staff at least disagree that admission procedure is quite fair. It indicates that fair selection of students. Thus we may conclude that admission procedure is quite fair and selection procedure ensures the eligible candidates.

4.3 Progress and Achievement Achievement is the extent to which a student has demonstrated knowledge, skills, values and attitudes as the result of the teaching learning process. It is measured by assessing how well students performed in relation to stated standards. On the other hand, progress is measured by how much achievements students make over a specific period of time (i.e., year-to-year, semester-to-semester, etc.). Progress and achievement present a complete picture of student learning. The quality assurance system of universities should be in place to assure that levels of students‟ achievements and progress are monitored and recorded duly for the use of reference points, evaluation of achievement and meaningful academic guidance and counselling. The opinion of the Academic Staff, Alumni and Student about the progress and achievement of students is given below:

On the other hand, 00% Academic and 23% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 34%, 55%, 61%, 21%, 68%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that commitment among students is observed to ensure desired progress and achievement. Also, about 34%, 10%, 27%, 57%, 7%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on this issue. It is evident from the above table that Student opinions vary from year to year. Thus we may conclude that commitment among students is not observed to ensure desired progress and achievement.

On the other hand, 33% Academic Staff, 50% Alumni at least disagree on this issue. Also, we observed that 35%, 67%, 11%, 31%, 61%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that students‟ progress is regularly recorded and monitored. But about 40%, 21%, 83%, 47%, 15%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree with this statement. For a regular recording and monitoring students‟ progress, we expect 100% respondents opinion is likely to be in favor of the statement. So it is said that recording of periodic progress and final achievements of the Students are not done consistently. It should be discussions meetings with the academics to formulate policy for recording and updating progress and achievements of each student.

Chapter 5 Physical Facilities

Quality physical facilities are integral part of the quality learning opportunities at the university. Physical facilities create favorable learning condition and facilitate the attainment of earning objectives. Physical facilities are very important for strengthening effective teaching learning that provide quality education. Physical facility includes class room, library, facilities, laboratory facilities, medical facilities and other facilities. The opinion of the alumni, current students, academic and non-academic staffs about whether all these physical facilities are provided or not in the department are given below.

5.1 Classroom Facilities Classroom facilities should be adequate and well equipped with modern teaching aids. The opinion of the alumni, current students, academic and non-academic staffs about whether classroom are good in number, well-spaced, well equipped and well maintained to ensure effective delivery is given below:

Table 5.1 indicates that about 50% Alumni at least agree that classroom facilities are suitable for ensuring effective learning. On the other hand, about 100% Academic Staff and 30% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 29%, 25%, 10%, 7%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that classroom facilities are suitable for ensuring effective learning. But, about 62%, 29%, 100%, 78%, 92%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS 2 Students at least disagree on this issue. It is evident from the above table and  test of homogeneity of respondents opinion that Student opinions vary from year to year which is statistically significant (p-value=0.00,  2  54.19 test, Appendix-I, Table VI). Since large number of student disagree that classroom facilities are suitable for ensuring effective learning. So we can say that classroom facilities in terms of number, space, modern equipment‟s are inadequate.

5.5 Other facilities Some other facilities should be available in the department such as Internet facilities, Adequate indoor and outdoor sports facilities, adequate safety measures & adequate office room facilities with competent manpower and relevant office equipment‟s to support the students‟ need. From the survey result it is observed that 58.3% Academic Staff, 19% Alumni, 18% Current Student at least agree that internet facilities with sufficient bandwidth capacity are available. But 33% Academic Staff, 71% Alumni, 71% Current Student at least disagree with this statement. On the other hand, about 8% Academic Staff, 30% Alumni, 19% Current Student at least agree that there are adequate sports facilities (indoor and outdoor). But 91% Academic Staff, 55% Alumni, 64% Current Student at least disagree with this statement.

Also, we observe that about 25% Academic Staff, 12% Alumni, 13% Current Student at least agree that existing gymnasium facilities are good enough. But 58% Academic Staff, 65% Alumni, 75% Current Student at least disagree with this statement.

Also, about 91% Academic Staff at least disagree that Office equipment’s are adequate to support the students’ need and same proportion of Academic Staff say that Entity does not have competent manpower to run the academic affairs. But 9% Academic Staff are neutral on these issues.

Chapter 6 Teaching Learning and Assessment

Teaching learning and assessment are the vital parts of academic program to achieve learning objectives. Teaching learning constitute the core of education. It is the responsibility of the educational institutions to ensure effective teaching learning for quality in education. Without effective teaching learning no quality in education can be achieved. For the purpose of effective teaching learning the critical factors are quality staff, appropriate teaching learning methods, use of lesson plan, technology integration and skill development mechanism. In this chapter we provided the opinion of Academic Staff, Alumni and Current Students.

6.1 Quality Staff

The Department deserves a higher rank due to its high-quality Academic Staffs. The Academic and Non-academic Staff are fit to meet the requirements of academic standards and strategies of teaching learning (Annexure 44, 45, 46).

6.2 Teaching learning methods The teachers should use innovative teaching techniques to make the students keen, focused and interested to learn the subjects taught, and are able to maintain a scholarly approach for engaging students in academic activities. Teachers need to be diligent in transferring new knowledge to the students effectively so that the goal of teaching learning succeeds. The opinion of Academic staff, Alumni and Student regarding teaching learning is given below:

Table 6.1 indicates that about 75% Academic Staff and 63% Alumni at least agree that teaching-learning is interactive and supportive. On the other hand, about 24% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 50%, 81%, 00%, 26%, 53%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that teaching-learning is interactive and supportive. But, about 23%, 11%, 77%, 62%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year Students at least disagree on this issue.

It is known that teaching method is mostly lecture based. Diverse, interactive, participatory, interesting and collaborative teaching methods are absent. Teachers do not yet use innovative teaching techniques to make the students keen, focused and interested to learn.

From the above table it is observed that, about 8% Academic Staff and 60% Alumni at least agree that class size is optimum for interactive teaching, learning. Also, about 34%, 51%, 5%, 21%, 23%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree on this issue. On the other hand, about 56% Academic Staff and 13% Alumni at least disagree that class size is optimum for interactive teaching, learning. Also, we observe that 39%, 35%, 82%, 51%, 69%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree on this issue. It is evident from the above table that most of the academic said that class size is not optimum for interactive teaching, learning.

Also, about 44%, 72%, 27%, 41%, 76%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree on this issue. Also, we observe that 24%, 8%, 27%, 10%, 00%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree that both formative (quizzes, assignments, term papers, continuous assessments, presentations, etc.) and summative assessment (final examination) strategies are followed.

6.3 Use of lesson plan Use of lesson plan is a growing practice in teaching learning internationally. It specifies the subject matter to be taught, learning objectives and assessment of that learning for each and every class. Use of lesson plan should be formalized in teaching learning practice with proper documentation and access.

From table 6.4 it is observed that about 75% Academic Staff, 62% Alumni at least agree that lesson plans/course outlines are provided to the students in advance. On the other hand, about 24% Academic Staff, 22% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 31%, 90%, 66%, 36%, 76%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree on this issue. Also, we observe that 42%, 4%, 33%, 57%, 15%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree that lesson plans/course outlines are provided to the students in advance. For a significant proportion we expect 100% respondents opinion in favour of the statement. This means that lesson plan is rarely used. Students do not know in advance what the teachers are going to discuss in the next class. So students can not have preparation prior to the class. They are also not sure about the number of classes and specific issues included in the lectures.

6.4 Technology integration IT integration in teaching is very critical for quality in education. IT integration in teaching learning will make it a lot easier, attractive and more effective to communicate ideas and complex subjects meaningfully in class rooms. In addition, use of IT in teaching will encourage students to use e-contents to improve learning, access e- resources for studying and research, use information technology for academic preparation and problem solving.

Table 6.5 indicates that about 00% Academic Staff, 16% Alumni at least agree that modern devices are used to improve teaching-learning process. On the other hand, about 91% Academic Staff, 32% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 16%, 72%, 21%, 7%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree on this issue. Also, we observe that about 73%, 21%, 83%, 78%, 91%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree that modern devices are used to improve teaching-learning process. Multimedia as a tool for effective teaching and learning is not widely used by the teachers. One of its advantages is that this technique makes the lectures more focused. But one of its problems is that dissemination of knowledge only through multimedia makes it limited. There is even less scope in this practice for interpretation, analyses discussion and participation by the students. Although it is helpful over dependence on multimedia does not fulfill required needs of acquired knowledge

But, about 20%, 8%, 27%, 41%, 7%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at 2 least disagree on this issue. It is evident from the above table and  test of homogeneity of respondents opinion that Student opinions vary from year to year which 2 is statistically significant (p-value=0.012,   31.52 test, Appendix-I, Table VII). Inconsistency of respondent‟s opinion indicates that diverse methods are not used properly for assessment.

Chapter 7 Student Support Services

Students support services are to meet the personal and academic needs of the students. The support system is an educational necessity and both students and staffs benefited from it. It contributes to the social and academic development of the students; enhance quality learning experience and educational achievement of the students by meeting their diverse needs. It also promotes the intellectual development. Student support services facilitate to build a student level community that creates a sense of belongingness, friendly and academic environment through socialization collaborative efforts and student involvement. Generally the provisions of student support services includes; co- curriculum and extra-curriculum activities, academic guidance and counseling, career and placement, alumni services and community services. In the following tables we provide the opinion of the alumni, current students and academics about whether or not these student support services are maintained in the department. 7.1 Academic guidance and counseling It is very critical to guide the students so that they can cope with the challenges and opportunities of university life. Sufficient and proper academic guidance and counselling beyond regular class-room lecture time is very effective in making the students serious regarding studies and motivate them to explore the ever expanding frontier of knowledge. Academic guidance and counselling should be formalized with proper documentation.

Table 7.1 indicates that about 58% Academic Staff and 50% Alumni at least agree that there is an arrangement in the entity to provide an academic guidance and counseling. On the other hand, about 35% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 32%, 58%, 5%, 37%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year and MS Students at least agree that there is an arrangement in the entity to provide an academic guidance and counseling. But, about 39%, 5%, 27%, 100%, 45%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on this issue. It is evident 86

Self-Assessment Report on Drama and Dramatics department, JU. 2016

2 from the above table and  test of homogeneity of respondents opinion that Student opinions vary from year to year which is statistically significant (p-value=0.00, 2   83.89 test, Appendix-I, Table X). This statistical result indicates that Senior Students opinion is more realistic than Junior Students opinion. Advising to the students is done by most of the teachers but no formal student advisor is appointed in the department. No career counselling with formal career guidance unit is established for this purpose. Students are not properly motivated for their career development.

7.2 Co- curricular and extra-curricular activities Co-curricular and extra-curricular activities are the integral part of the skill development mechanism. University must have some departments or centers like Department of Physical Education, Teacher Student Cultural Centre (TSCC) and facilities to stage drama hold debates, musical soirée, publish journals and exhibit fine arts. Co-curricular and Extra-curricular activities should be encouraged with reasonable time to participate (Annexure 49, 50).

Table 7.2 indicates that about 41% Academic Staff and 66% Alumni at least agree that the entity provides co-curricular and extra-curricular exposures to the students. On the other hand, about 6% Academic Staff, 6% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 42%, 76%, 33%, 10%, 37%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least agree that The entity provides co-curricular and extra-curricular exposures to the students. But, about 36%, 10%, 55%, 68%, 37, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on this issue. Co-curricular and extra-curricular activities are not sufficient in practice.

7.3 Career & placement Career counseling and placement arrangement can play very critical role to get the right job opportunities and select suitable career institution. The opinion of Academic Staff, Alumni and Current Student about the placement and career planning office provided effective services to the graduating students is given below:

Chapter 8 Staff and Facilities

At any university or program offering entity the Academic and Nonacademic staffs are the major players in teaching learning and research along with the students. Efficiency and commitment of these staffs are the key success factors to all academic activities and quality assurance system. Teaching staffs are creating knowledge through research and transfer to the students through teaching learning practices. On the other hand nonacademic staffs must have active role with the necessary depth and breadth of technical knowledge and experience to support the academic activities of the entity. To have an effective team composed of academic and non-academic staffs the critical areas to be considered are entry qualification, recruitments, staff development, peer observations, career development and key performance indicators. In this chapter we have provided the opinion of the Student, Alumni, Non-academic and Academic Staff about Entry qualifications, Recruitment, Staff development, and Key performance indicators for non-academic staff. We have considered agree & strongly agree as in agreement category and disagree & strongly disagree as in disagreement category.

8.1 Entry Qualifications Qualifications and eligibilities required for the entry level differ in respect to the position and salary scale of the academic-and non-academic staffs of the University (Annexures 9-14). The required educational qualification for the candidates to be appointed as supporting staffs start from class eight to graduation (Bachelor or Master degree). The required educational qualification for the candidates to be appointed as academic staff starts from Bachelor and Master Degree to Doctoral Degree. The need of working experience for the candidates to be appointed as non-academic- or academic staffs is not always obligatory. Recruitment of academic and no-academic staffs in a Department is controlled by the central administration of the University, though the Department has the scope to initiate the procedure and fix one or more special eligibilities in accordance to the service rules of the University. During this survey this area was not included in the questionnaire and not evaluated.

8.2 Recruitment and Promotion Sufficient number of Academic staffs is very important to provide continuity and stability, cover the curriculum adequately and effectively, allow for scholarly activities in teaching learning and research. In order to select the right person for the right job university should have a transparent, fair, appropriate and properly documented recruitment policy specifying the entry qualifications and outlining the key stages for both Academic and Non-academic staffs. The opinion of the Academic and Non- academic Staff about recruitment policy and practices is given below:

8.3 Staff development Quality assurance recognizes the importance of training and development. Training is very important to enhance the professional skills of the staff and to keep them up-to-date with best practices in quality assurance. The opinion of the student, alumni, non- academic and academic about non- academic staffs has enough opportunity to take part in different training program for skill development is given below:

From the above table it is observed that 28% Non-Academic Staff at least agree that a congenial atmosphere prevails to enhance professional knowledge through research and higher studies. But 71% Non-Academic Staff at least disagree on this issue. On the other hand, about 58% Academic staff at least disagree that a congenial atmosphere prevails to enhance professional knowledge through research and higher studies.

Table 8.5 indicates that about 25% Academic Staff and 00% Non-academic staff at least agree that Non-Academics have enough opportunity to take part in different training programs for skill development. But about 75% Academic Staff at least disagree with this statement. 8.4 Peer Observation Peer observation is an effective approach to get useful insights to improve teaching capacity and quality. In some cases it is very difficult to identify ones‟ own mistakes and limitations. In that case, peer observation provides an opportunity to learn from each other and to improve. Peer observation also helps experienced staffs to share the good practices with the new and relatively less experienced staff members. Such provision of mentoring is very effective to develop the professional skills of young and newly recruited staff. Peer observation means a process in which a colleague or other nominated individual is invited to observe one‟s class or way of doing a particular job and give feedback. Peer observation is a powerful tool for developing a culture of good practice. Such good practice may be used for the students also under the oversight of the faculty members. But peer observation is not practice for the teachers in the Department of Drama and Dramatics. Table 8.6: Policy of entity to provide mentoring/continuous guidance for new Academic staff

Table 8.6 indicates that only 8.3% Academic Staff at least agree that the entity has a policy to provide mentoring/continuous guidance for new academic staff. But about 83% Academic Staff and 100% Non-Academic Staff at least disagree with this statement. Some disagreement of respondents opinion indicates that entity has lack of policy to provide mentoring/continuous guidance for new Academic staff. The entity should introduce peer observations, feedback and monitoring system for class teaching. 8.5 Career Development All employees are expected to participate in some form of career development every year. Career development encourages continuous self-improvement and a commitment to lifelong learning. It results in increased job satisfaction, enhanced capabilities and higher performance. Thus, Career development provides staffs with opportunities to build productive and satisfying careers while contributing to the achievement of the university‟s mission.

Table 8.7 indicates that about 8% Academic Staff at least agree that the entity practices seminars and workshops to share knowledge and experience among the faculty members. But about 83% Academic Staff and 100% Non-Academic staff at least disagree with this statement. Since most of the respondents disagree on this issue so we may conclude that entity has lack of seminars and workshops to share new knowledge and experience among the faculty members and explore innovations.

But about 82% Academic Staff and 100% Non-Academic Staff at least disagree with this statement. We see that most of the Academic Staff and all Non-academic Staff disagree on this issue. It indicates that the entity does not have a performance award policy to inspire Academic staff. 8.6 Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) Well-defined KPIs may act as a source of motivation and means to ensure accountability of staff. University should use Teaching Performance Indicators (TPIs) and Research Performance Indicators (RPIs) of the teachers as key performance indicators. Performance of an academic institution should not be confined to producing graduates in terms of quantity only. It is important to have specific performance and success indicators that contribute to graduates‟ skills development, teaching learning, research and extension services, national and international recognition and contribution to socio- economic development. Similarly, faculty members should not limit their activities within self-development by research and publications only. Rather, teaching performance should be measured based on student evaluation and peer observation, contribution to skill development of the students, quality teaching-learning.

Chapter 9 Research & Extension

The prime objective of higher education is to contribute to the sustainable development and improvement of society as a whole. Research forms the basis of creativity and innovative which are very important for sustainable socio economic growth and development. Research also makes teaching learning more effective and practical oriented. University should have a system and policy to disseminate and transfer the research findings to the industry and community through extension services. The factors that influence Research and extension policy and program, fund and facilities, fund hunting‟s and disseminates of research findings of the department. The opinion of Alumni, Current Student and Academic Staff about whether these factors are available in the department or not are given below: 9.1 Policy and program Table 9.1: A well-defined research and development policy of the entity Strongly Strongly Disagree Undecided Agree Respondent disagree agree (%) (%) (%) (%) (%) Academic 25.0 50.0 25.0 0.0 0.0 Alumni 10.7 7.1 25.0 44.6 12.5 1st Year 57.4 9.3 7.4 9.3 16.7

On the other hand, 75% Academic and 17% Alumni at least disagree with this statement. Also, we observe that about 25%, 62%, 15%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, and MS Students at least agree that the entity has a well-defined research and development policy. Also, about 66%, 20%, 82%, 93%, 45%, respectively, 1st year, 2nd year, 3rd year, 4th year and MS Students at least disagree on 2 this issue. It is evident from the above table and  test of homogeneity of respondents opinion that Student opinions vary from year to year which is statistically significant (p- 2 value = 0.00,   89.47 test, Appendix-I, Table-XII). This statistical result indicates that responses are very much inconsistence. Inconsistency of responses opinion indicates that entity has lack of well-structured research policy.

9.2 Fund and facilities University should develop capacity with appropriate facilities and provisions to undertake research with national relevance and give due motivation and recognition to researchers.

Chapter 10 Process Management and Continuous Improvement

Quality assurance system refers to a set of administration and procedural activities with systematic assessment in respect of standard feedback, remedial measures and monitoring. The total system is focused on process output, which refers to quality in education and achievement of objectives. Several interventions are needed to assure internal quality and continuous improvement, which include faculty development, external evaluation, and linkages program with corporate world, adapting good proactive and developing quantity culture in all walks of academic management. The process by which quality assessment (QA) activities will be executed and quality in education will be assured must be in place, property managed, periodically reviewed, evaluated and updated for continuous improvement. Self-assessment, improvement plan, stakeholder‟s feedback, use of peer observations result, use of all feedback should be maintained in the department. These were surveyed whether it is maintained or not. The results are given below.

10.1 Self-assessment Self-Assessment is a systematic process of evaluating the various aspects of institution or academic programs including the major QA areas in respect of national qualifications framework and criteria whether quality standards are being met. For the purpose of further improvement SA collects information and evidences from the stakeholders, reviews those and identify the weaknesses and areas need further improvement to enhance quality of teaching learning and education. Self-Assessment does not mean that evidences of quality education are not available. The general objective of the Self-Assessment is-  To promote quality culture within the university ensuring good practices and governance. The specific objectives of self-assessment exercise are-  Institutionalize the quality assurance culture within the university;  Reviewing and identifying the key factors responsible for further improvement of existing policies and procedures of the Jahangirnagar University;  Assessing and strengthening capacity of faculty members and supporting staffs, for effective governance, teaching-learning, research and community services through consistent quality assurance practice and performance; late grated system.  Promoting Digitalizing teaching-learning system, library, conference/workshop/ seminar room for capacity building and promoting quality assurance (QA) culture at all levels of the university;  Prepares the university to meet the external quality assurance assessment and accreditation requirements;  Building the images of the university ensuring transparency, accountability and good practices in all aspects of managements by regular monitoring of

100

Self-Assessment Report on Drama and Dramatics department, JU. 2016

implementation of policies, procedures, systems and processes through audit, survey and other instruments; and  Coordinating all quality assurance (QA) related activities at the national levels; and liaising with UGC and other external QA agencies at home and abroad.

Table 10.1 indicates that about 66% Academic staff at least agree that academic programs are reviewed by the entity for the enhancement students‟ learning. On the other hand, none of the Academic staff at least disagree on this issue. Actually periodical self- assessment is not in practice.

10.2 Improvement Plan An improvement plan (IP), also known as an action plan, is a great way to give struggling employees the opportunity to succeed while still holding them accountable for past performance.

In fact the entity has no structured improvement plan. After completion of external peer review the PSAC of the department will prepare a draft 101

Self-Assessment Report on Drama and Dramatics department, JU. 2016

improvement plan with benchmarking in respect of the SA Report findings and the recommendations of the external peer review panel. Finally, the PSAC will submit the improvement plan to the Head of the program offering entity for further necessary actions.

10.3 Stakeholders feedback and its use Quality is a matter of negotiating between the academic institution and the stakeholders. In this negotiation process, each stakeholder needs to formulate, as clearly as possible, his/ her requirements. The university or faculty, as ultimate supplier, must try to reconcile all these different wishes and requirements. Sometimes the expectations will run parallel, but they can just as well end up in conflict. As far as possible, the requirements of all stakeholders we translated into the mission and goals of our department and into the objectives of a faculty and of the educational program and as far as this concerns research, the research programs. The challenge is to achieve the goals and objectives. So, quality is achieving our goals and aims in an efficient and effective way, assuming that the goals and aims reflect the requirements of all our stakeholders in an adequate way. For the purpose of further improvement SA collects information and evidences from the stakeholders, reviews those and identify the weaknesses and areas need further improvement to enhance quality of teaching learning and education. Self-Assessment does not mean that evidences of quality education are not available. Table 10.4: Ensuring a usual practice by the entity for students or Alumni is feedback as a culture

But about 25% Academic Staff at least disagree on this issue. Actually entity do not practice students‟/ Alumni‟s feedback as a culture. Regular contact with stakeholders is not in practice. The department needs to arrange regular workshop/discussions to get feedback from stakeholders on academic development.

10.4 Use of peer observation results Peer observation partnerships can help teachers improve their teaching practice, transform their educational perspectives and develop collegiality. Peer observation of teaching is a key element of academic development, yet it is not widely reported as part of tutor development programs. It offers many benefits such as improvements in teaching practice and the development of confidence to teach and learn more about teaching (Bell 2005). However there may be negative aspects of peer observation including that it may be seen as intrusive and challenging academic freedom. These negative aspects can be 102

Self-Assessment Report on Drama and Dramatics department, JU. 2016

overcome in conditions where peer observation is designed to be non-judgmental and developmental rather than evaluative and externally required (Lomas and Nicholls 2005). Bell (2005, p. 3) defines peer observation of teaching as: “collaborative, developmental activity in which professionals offer mutual support by observing each other teach; explaining and discussing what was observed; sharing ideas about teaching; gathering student feedback on teaching effectiveness; reflecting on understandings, feelings, actions and feedback and trying out new ideas”. Peer observation under structured plan is not practice in the department of Drama and Dramatics.

10.5 Regular updating of program objectives and ILOs No well-structured and well-written objectives of department. Intended learning outcomes (ILOs) are not designed in the entity.

Chapter 13 Conclusion and Recommendation

13.1 Conclusion

Self-Assessment reporting is an integral part of the QA mechanism and internal quality assurance system of a university or program offering entity. It helps to manage and achieve the objectives in a more organized and disciplined manner. It is a self-reflective and critical evaluation of current state of QA practices. Self-Assessment report will be used as the core document for the purpose of external peer review and strategic planning for further improvement. In all cases the self-assessment report should reflect to what extent each quality standard is met. Self-assessment is a very important exercise to the academic institutions for continuous improvement and quality assurance in education. It refers to a comprehensive and systematic process of collecting and analyzing information from major stakeholders on the QA areas and related aspects of the educational institution. The SA process allows the organization to identify the strengths and areas in which improvements are required for quality education. It also provides information to participants, allowing them to evaluate and understand the overall quality of academic programs. Self-assessment provides a direction and guidelines to prepare comprehensive improvement plan addressing the issues critical to quality assurance (Loacker, 2004b).

In particular we discuss different issues in different chapters, which are summarized in the following lines.

Chapter 1 is an introductory chapter including significance of program Self-Assessment, process of Assessment, overview of the University, overview of the program offering entity, brief description of the program(s) under review, objectives and intended learning outcomes of the program and brief description of the program(s) under review.
