Program evaluation of the sustainability of teaching methods

Pages 655-666 | Published online: 15 Dec 2008
 

Abstract

This paper suggests a particular question that higher education researchers might ask: ‘Do educational programs use teaching methods that are environmentally, socially and economically sustainable?’ It further proposes that program evaluation research (PER) can be used to answer the question. Consideration is given to: a) program evaluation research processes and indicators, and their modifications for evaluating the sustainability of teaching methods; and b) institutional sustainability evaluation research tools and their modifications for the evaluation of teaching. North American university and college program evaluation websites and sustainability evaluation tools used to assess universities in North America are examined.
