Student evaluation of teaching in continuing training programs: issues of recognition and collaboration between the stakeholders
This paper presents a participative research about the student evaluation of teaching in continuing training programs proposed in a university institute in Switzerland. The research project examines the viewpoints of different stakeholders who are concerned by the programs and its evaluation. Some of these actors are co-authors of this article. The results expose the actors’ relationship with the standardized tool used to evaluate lessons. They show different forms of recognition related to the professionalization goal of the training programs. In doing so, the article stresses different collaboration issues developed around the student evaluation of teaching and, more broadly, around the continuing training programs.
