Systematic course analysis – how infrastructure and research findings collaborate to support course development

This work-in-progress research-to-practice paper describes how a technical university has worked to build a research-based course evaluation and analysis framework into its IT-infrastructure and how it is used for course development. We report an initial analysis made to see how spread the use of the framework is over the university. We investigate the usage and the ownership of course evaluations and discuss different approaches of how the system has been utilized. By analysing the use of the framework at the university we gain a first insight how the framework has been received among faculty and how they make use of the framework for course evaluation, analysis, and development in a systematic way.
