Automated Evaluation: EvaSys
EvaSys is a web-based platform for the creation, implementation and administration of surveys. From questionnaire design to automated reporting through to the analysis of results, EvaSys offers a comprehensive solution for evaluation processes. The system is suitable for standardized course evaluations of varying scope, whether by individual instructors for the evaluation of their own courses or university-wide surveys regarding specific concerns.
TUM has acquired a campus license. This means that EvaSys is available free of charge to all schools and faculties, their members, and central units for surveys in the area of teaching and learning.
Standardized questionnaires can be designed using the EvaSys editor function. Surveys can be carried out in the form of hard-copy or online questionnaires. Hybrid questionnaires combining both forms can be planned and implemented using EvaSys in combination with TeleForm software. Hard-copy questionnaires are processed using specially-configured scanning stations linked to the EvaSys platform.
Standard applications of EvaSys software include:
- Course evaluation (events, programs, modules)
- Survey of studying conditions
- Alumni surveys
- Seminar evaluation
- TUM’s schools and colleges have access to EvaSys for surveys within the scope of quality management.
- TUM teaching staff can use EvaSys to evaluate their courses.
- Central administrative units and departments can use EvaSys to evaluate events.
EvaSys at the TUM is decentralized, so that various clients have access to the system. These clients may be individual schools or colleges or central units of the university. Each client has an administrator. If you would like to know who the EvaSys administrator of your unit is, please contact the Quality Management Team.
EvaSys can be accessed around the clock via your Internet browser. The relevant EvaSys administrator will assign you a user name and initial password to access the system.
