Forming Quality Committee will start by the kick-off
meeting, formed and chaired by GJU, with consortium members from
EU, Jordanand and syria and one Quality Manager. The duty of the quality
committee is to monitor and evaluate the progress of the project and to ensure
that all its activities are carried out properly according to European
Standards and Guidelines for Quality Assurance and ensuring proper execution of
the project to achieve its objective.
The quality committee controls and directs the quality
manager. The Quality Manager will design a proper evaluation process and be
responsible for creating a set of indicators. In coordination with the project
manager and other project consortium members, the Quality Manager will set
criteria for the selection of members of the “External Evaluator”.
External Evaluator will conduct constructive
evaluation by working according to the terms of reference and ‘rules of
engagement’ set by the project Quality Manager and the manager of the project.
The External Evaluator will advise and train partner universities to use
suitable tools of evaluation for the sustainability of the program quality. The
expert will write intermediate reports, one each 6 months, and a final report,
to readdress the project in case of going off from indicated objectives and
methodologies. The evaluators will conduct the evaluation beginning of 2018, to
give the project consortium time for improvement and adaptation.
GJU, will monitor the project at different points using different types
of evaluation including exploratory evaluation to support the process, and
experimental and quasi-experimental study designs to evaluate the outcomes.
Summative final evaluation will include an impact study and a benchmarking
study to evaluate the quality of the resulting courses, labs and e-learning
