Quality Assessment and Educational Policy at the Universiteit Van Amsterdam the Netherlands
نویسندگان
چکیده
Like in most other countries after World War II, in the Netherlands the traditional system of educational quality control came to a definite end. This system was characterised by small numbers of students and intensive personal contact between the university professor and his (or in exceptional cases: her graduates). This enabled the individual professor’s status as a scholar to be taken as evident guarantee, not only for the quality of the curriculum and the educational system as a whole, but also for the quality of individual graduates. Scholarship and the education of new scholars were primarily an internal university responsibility.
