2021-04-23 - Assessing Learning: Reflections on our research based on the RAE self evaluation report

https://kth-se.zoom.us/j/62729673850

In this case when we say "Assessing Learning", we actually mean "Assessing the Department of Learning".

KTH is going through a self-organised evaluation of research, called Research Assessment Exercise, RAE. (More information about the process, in Swedish and in English.)

• During the spring, departments make a written self-evaluation
• External reviewer panels visit KTH (remotely) during 23-27 August. 

The Department of Learning in Engineering Sciences belongs to Panel 7, together with four other ITM departments. A final draft of the self-evaluation can be found here.

Please read the pages about our department (pp. 65-82) and our two impact cases (pp. 110-112). Some questions to reflect on:

• What impression(s) does the apartment make in this description?
• What is it that we say and what is it that we don't say?
• How could we improve as a research environment?
• What do we want to be able to say in the next RAE, probably in six years time?
• What are the first steps we can take now?

At the seminar, we will discuss the report and the department as a research environment.

It will actually still be possible to make changes, so suggestions for improvements are welcome (without increasing the page count).
