A Study on the Development of Self-Certified Evaluation Rubric for the Quality Management of University Major Curriculum

Abstract

This study attempted to present a standard manual through the case of University A that can be applied when domestic universities want to improve or upgrade the rubric, which is the evaluation standard for curriculum certification evaluation, more than 10 years after conducting their own curriculum certification evaluation to manage and improve the quality of major curriculum. To this end, a rubric draft was first developed by revising and supplementing the evaluation criteria based on the results of analyzing related literature research and analyzing cases of major domestic universities that introduced curriculum certification evaluation through the advice of experts(N=3) in the curriculum . The draft rubric developed in this way verified the validity and feasibility of research results through a meeting with a modified Delphi survey(N=10) and a practitioner in charge of major curriculum certification evaluation(N=5) for experts in the field of education who have conducted research related to curriculum evaluation and curriculum evaluation. The results are as follows. First, evaluation criteria were developed to systematically evaluate the entire course of the major curriculum, including curriculum development, support, operation, performance, and improvement. Second, the evaluation criteria developed in this way were designed with a total of 3 items and 19 evaluation criteria, and an evaluation criterion with a content validity(CVI) of 0.80 or more was developed. Third, based on the results of the curriculum certification evaluation using this rubric, a feedback system was proposed to strengthen the quality of major education by establishing a continuous curriculum quality management system. It is expected that these findings will help improve the quality of the curriculum and operate a substantial curriculum.
