EvaSys Education Overview - New ways of evaluating teaching

EvaSys Education is a sophisticated Internet based survey management system with which the evaluation of academic programs can be carried out quickly and efficiently.
The basis for an integrated, efficient evaluation process is to maximise automation and structured processes for the questionnaire layout, survey administration and reporting. EvaSys allows for centralised, decentralised and department level evaluation approaches – to fit your requirements.

EvaSys Education is used by more than 500 different institutions worldwide and is the market leading solution in this environment.

What makes EvaSys unique:

• Enterprise Survey Management:
  EvaSys Education is designed to manage core survey functions centrally creating strategic organisational visibility. EvaSys Education’s versitility allows for the management of multiple instructors with numerous courses offered over varied time periods . In addition, EvaSys can be implemented across multiple departments distributing defined administrative and passive user roles and secure access rights across complex organisational environments
  
  
• Hybrid:
  Core to the EvaSys model is the ability to automate both the use of paper and online surveys. This Hybrid approach is native to the product meaning there are no additional steps for seamlessly integrating multiple survey methodologies. Features such as conditional branching translates automatically to the paper generated layout of the questionnaire
  
  
• Great flexibility in survey methods:
  EvaSys Education supports a variety of survey formats; anonymous or non-anonymous surveys, secure online surveys, e-mail invitation distribution, local or distributed printing of scannable surveys as well as surveys generated by authorised faculty or student users
  
  
• Central and distributed use:
  Once the central course evaluation has been implemented across all disciplines allowing for overall administration, it is possible to allow individual departments to access their own survey systems. The EvaSys administrator can enable these users to create and manage their own survey projects without any impact on the core organisational use of the technology
  
  
• Strong functions for reporting and quality management:
  The data collected is processed by EvaSys as native reports in PDF format. In addition to univariate analysis (histograms, pie, line and bar charts) the report contains crosstab, profile lines and the scanned responses to open questions. QM (Quality Management) sheets and traffic lights give the management a quick overview. Quality guidelines can be easily defined allowing for automatic quality objective maintenance and organisational transparency
  
  
• Interface connectivity:
  The necessary basic structure for the assessment of courses, departments, lecturers, participants and beneficiaries can be exported via CSV or XML and imported from other sources. Template interfaces already exist for HIS-LSF, UnivIS, Blackboard and Moodle. Additional interfaces for WebCT, SCT Sakai and banner are also planned. Furthermore, version 3.1 with SOAP interfaces for programming and remote control of the application is offered. Survey data can also be exported for further advanced analysis and reporting to SPSS
