“…This is because conventional evaluation of university courses tends to rely on standardized surveys which require learners to indicate their level of satisfaction with sets of items based on the learning content, aspects of teaching, and method of delivery, although such surveys may sometimes be supplemented with other sources of data gathered by individual facilitators. Cohen (1981), Denson, Loveday and Dalton (2010), Feldman (1989), Frick, Chadha, Watson, Wang and Green (2008a, 2008b, Kulik (2001), Spiel, Schober and Reimann (2006), Shortland andMark (1987), andWagner (1999) have highlighted the limitations of current approaches and strongly recommend extending data collection beyond student ratings to a more systematic approach to evaluation designs that offer greater understanding of how the learning is translated into the sociocultural contexts of learners' personal and work lives. Learning is essentially a sociocultural activity, where knowledge requirements are shaped by local "rules, values, attitudes, expectations etc" (Ellstrom, Svesson and Aberg, 2004, p. 479) and the material, social, discursive and historical conditions and relations of work contexts (Kemmis, 2005), are well documented.…”
