Abstract

Describes how the University of Louisville developed a partnership with Dey Systems, a Louisville technology company specializing in quality and measurement solutions, to create a quality measurement system for higher education. QMS2000, a technology‐based enterprise‐wide assessment model, is a relational, interactive information system that includes data from 313 satisfaction surveys that are linked to corresponding databases at the University. QMS2000 is an on‐line information system, operating in a networked, client‐server environment that permits licensed users access to designated components of the system. QMS2000 users generate reports and perform advanced statistical analyses drawing from the QMS2000 databases. The data and reports are used to improve academic and support programs at the university. The role of QMS2000 in the University’s quality improvement scheme and its initial impact are discussed.

Abstract

This paper discusses the notion of quality measurement and describes the role of an enterprise‐wide, technology‐based continuous Quality Measurement System (QMS2000) in the quality assurance program at the University of Louisville. QMS2000 is a relational, interactive information system that includes data from 273 student, alumni, faculty, staff, and employer satisfaction surveys that are linked to corresponding databases at the university. QMS2000 is on‐line, operating in a networked, client‐server environment that permits licensed users access to designated components of the system at any time from designated desktops at the university. QMS2000 users generate reports and perform advanced statistical analyses drawing from the databases. The data and reports are integrated into the accreditation, strategic planning, budgeting, outcomes assessment, and program review processes at the university. The paper closes with a discussion of the initial impacts of QMS2000 on the university’s efforts at quality assurance.

Abstract

NO ONE WOULD BE SURPRISED by the assertion that John Bunyan made a deep impression among the devout Welsh for a century or more after his unique career. The standard evidence for such a statement is of course the number of editions of the author, and for Bunyan a special compilation of all his works printed in Wales alone between 1677 and 1931 shows the impressive total of 188 titles (no fewer than 58 of Pilgrim's Progress) in various languages. For a land with only a little over a half million inhabitants and with only two cities with over five thousand population in 1800, this is a record hard to equal, demonstrating an extraordinary devotion to a single author. Yet beyond such eloquent numerical summary another particular witness emerges from an unsuspected quarter. In the 1767 Welsh translation of The Doctrine of the Law and Grace Unfolded is dutifully included the ‘Names of the Subscribers’ underwriting the publication. This particular list is so unusual as to merit perpetuation in its entirety:

Abstract

A bilingual Welsh‐English full text database is planned for Inspection Reports of Her Majesty's Inspectors of Schools for Wales. Special requirements for free text retrieval in the Welsh language are identified, and practical solutions are proposed for problems arising from the use of standard text database products, some of which may also apply to other lesser‐used languages.
