CEPs should be completed after the grades are published at the end of the course. This should be within four weeks of the course end date.

If you are new to using the CEP PowerApp, you can attend a workshop held at the end of semester or access this CEP guide.

There is a link in the CEP to a filtered dashboard for the course results. The data for courses in unified programmes is not available via a filtered dashboard. If you need to navigate the Live dashboard to find the data for your CEP, click on the link to the Live dashboard in the CEP and click here for guidance on filtering for the relevant results.

TIPS for using the CEP PowerApp:

1 Use Chrome as the browser.

3 Bookmark the link for easy access.

4 The CEP data will be visible to all Unitec Power BI licence holders. Individual names of staff and/or students are not mentioned in the CEP for privacy reasons.

5 When the CEP is completed, a PDF version will be emailed to the Course Co-ordinator listed in the report. After the CEP is submitted, there is ‘view only’ access, but the PDF request function is still active and the Course Co-ordinator email address can still be updated.

Why we do it

Course Evaluation Plans (CEP) are a key component in the chain of self-assessment and improvement. They provide kaimahi an opportunity to reflect on course outcomes and to plan improvements to their courses and to their own development as teachers. CEPs provide Academic Programme Managers with rich information about the component parts (courses) which form part of their programmes. Data from CEPs informs priority group teams and supports consistent reflective practice.

Who it involves

All kaimahi who are responsible for courses and outcomes are involved in Course Evaluation Planning. Evidence is gathered from a wide range of internal and external inputs and evaluated by the teacher.

What it involves

Course Evaluation Plans (CEP) are completed at the end of each course, as a reflection and evaluation on course design, teaching, student engagement and learning and what changes will benefit this course into the future.

As the Kaitiaki (guardian) of the knowledge that is taught in your course the CEP offers a more formal way to record your evaluation and improvements, which can be discussed with your Academic Programme Manager (APM)/Programme Co-ordinator (PC) and feed valuable information into the teaching team’s understanding of your programme overall. It is very useful for evidence for the Programme Evaluation Planning (PEP) and āta-kōrero.

How it connects

The CEP is designed to flow core academic quality evaluation and planning seamlessly between Course level, Programme level and School level reporting of Educational Performance and Capability in Self-assessment.
