Abstract
This study attempted to clarify the dimensionality of faculty-course evaluation. A special appraisal instrument consisting of 64 rating items was administered to 2301 men and women students at the University of Hawaii. Sixty-four variables were intercorrelated and factor analyzed, resulting in an eight factor solution. The factors were grouped around the concepts of learning context, instructor, course, and outcomes of instruction. The findings were discussed in light of a systems approach to evaluation in higher education.Keywords
