Teacher Evaluation System of Islamic University of Technology

Abstract

Automation system is now being used in every aspects of life. It has made our life easier and the possibility of covering greater area of work has increased due to the automation process. Completing track of work and keeping records of work has become much easier because it reduced the huge amount of paper work which was needed before. The systematic automation of virtually every facet of life activity has today become more of a necessity than just mere luxury and the putting of such system online is even becoming increasingly imperative. With this respect the idea to develop an Online Teacher Evaluation System is being conceived. With a total population of over 1200 and each student each student evaluate the teaching of an average of six subjects and corresponding labs, the volume of paper work that has to be done, sorted and listed is enormous. Every semester around 12000 evaluation sheets are collected by the respective department secretaries. Getting to summarize those evaluation sheets is a time consuming and difficult work. So to make this evaluation system fully functional and the whole process easier, the idea of teacher evaluation system has been introduced. Each student is assigned a username and password with which he can access the system and evaluate only the teachers who were in that particular semester. Teachers can also access the system and see their evaluation. Head of the departments and vice chancellor can also access the system with various privileges. Only the VC has unrestricted access across the system. There will also be an admin in the system. He is the one who is responsible for creating new users and their passwords, granting different level of the system according to the user. In a nutshell, if the system is deployed, it will make the evaluation process suitable and easier and reduce the huge amount of paperwork. The system offers very user friendly interface, graphical representation of evaluation and gives an overview of whole evaluation system.
