Abstract
Course evaluation data from courses at higher education is often given by students. Commonly the evaluations are given as questionnaires with discrete answers on a Likert scale. At the Technical University of Denmark this is done on a constant basis. However, the data is not used optimally. The standard way of displaying these data is as a histogram or frequency table of each question separately. The paper discusses various ways of enhancing the amount of information, which can be extracted. We consider factor analyses for grouping of the questions and regression analyses in order to relate questionnaire data to student outcome in the form of exam grades.
