Students Effort to Improve Learning Results by Using Quantum Learning Method ...AI Publications
This research aims to determine student learning outcomes by applying Quantum Learning method of prism and pyramid by eight grade students of SMP Negeri 2 Sipoholon in academic year 2017/2018. This type of research is Class Action Research (CAR). The subjects in this study were eight grade students of SMP Negeri 2 Sipoholon in academic year 2017/2018 were 28 student. The objective of this research is improving student learning outcomes. Instruments used were: description tests, observation sheets and interviews. Descriptive tests use to find out student learning outcomes, observation sheets use to find out ability of the teacher to apply learning and interviews to find out where the students are wrong. The average initial test score was 35.46 and the classical completeness was 0%. The average value of the first cycle was 59.78. Students who completed were 11 students (39.29%), 17 students (60.71%) were not finished, and the implementation of learning was in a less category (value 2.00). The increase in classical completeness was 39.29% and the average increase was 24.32 from the results of the initial tests. The average value of the second cycle was 76.04 and 25 students (89.29%) from 28 students had achieved mastery learning while the other 3 students (10.71%) had not yet completed, and the learning went well (average 3, 00). Cycle II has achieved classical completeness. Classical completeness has increased by 50% and the average has increased by 16.25 from cycle I. Thus the Quantum Learning method can improve student learning outcomes on the Prism and Piramid by eight grade students of SMP Negeri 2 Sipoholon in academic year 2017/2018.

It was determined that continuous assessment helps students understand difficult concepts and better prepares them for final exams. The document recommends that teachers need more support in developing rubrics for various continuous assessment methods.
Curriculum evaluation models practical applications for teacheBELETE DAMTEW
This article discusses curriculum evaluation models that can provide teachers with practical guidance for evaluating curriculum. It summarizes three models: Davis' Process Model, Stake's Countenance Model, and Eisner's Connoisseurship Model. Davis' model outlines the key processes of curriculum evaluation, including delineating the evaluation, collecting information, and utilizing the results. Stake's model focuses on defining intents, collecting observational data, and identifying discrepancies. Eisner's model provides guidance for interpreting and appraising evaluation findings through descriptive, interpretive, and judgment stages to build consensus. The article argues that combining elements of these three models can provide an effective framework to structure teacher-led curriculum evaluation activities.
The document provides guidelines for faculty on promoting best practices for assessing student learning in online courses.

1) PBL was implemented over two academic years, starting with mechanics only and expanding to all topics the second year, using problems about motion and telecommunication satellites.
2) Classroom activities and teamwork reports had high success rates over 75%, while post-tests had much higher failure rates around 40%.
3) Student opinion surveys found satisfaction with teamwork and PBL skills declined from the first to second year, possibly due to increasing group sizes, but views of PBL preparation for careers increased.
The document discusses curriculum evaluation models and processes. It defines curriculum evaluation as assessing the strengths and weaknesses of a curriculum to improve its effectiveness. Several models are described, including Tyler's objectives-centered model which evaluates curriculum elements like objectives and student outcomes. Stufflebeam's CIPP model assesses curriculum context, inputs, processes, and products. The stakeholder-responsive model focuses on curriculum implementation from stakeholders' perspectives. Scriven's consumer-oriented model uses criteria and checklists to conduct formative or summative evaluations. Overall, the document outlines different approaches to curriculum evaluation to enhance learning outcomes.
The document summarizes the Carolina MPA program's use of rubrics to assess student competencies in its new competency-based curriculum.

Conversations with the Mathematics Curriculum: Testing and Teacher DevelopmentSaide OER Africa
This paper addresses the question: how do mathematics teachers make meaning from curriculum statements in relation to their teaching practices. We report on a teacher development activity in which teachers mapped test items from an international test against the national curriculum statement in mathematics. About 50 mathematics teachers across Grades 3-9 worked in small groups with a graduate student or staff member as a group leader. Drawing on focus group interviews with the teachers and the group leaders we show that the activity focused the teachers on the relationships between the intended curriculum and their teaching, i.e. the enacted curriculum, in four areas: content coverage; cognitive challenge; developing meaning for the assessment standards; and sequence and progression. We argue that the activity illuminates ways in which international tests can provide a medium for teacher growth rather than teacher denigration and alienation.
This document discusses using e-portfolios to assess student competence in Computing Grade 1. It outlines the objectives of using portfolios to promote self-evaluation, planning, writing and other skills. Students completed portfolio activities individually and received feedback from teachers. Analysis found that 75% of students who participated in portfolios passed the first exam, and 100% passed the second exam, suggesting portfolios improved learning outcomes. However, portfolios require more time from both students and teachers than conventional methods.
Managing the evaluation of curriculum and instructionmiira77
Curriculum focuses on important knowledge and skills for learning through a design or roadmap, while instruction is how that learning is achieved. Evaluating curriculum and instruction involves asking key questions about whether objectives are being addressed, content is presented sequentially, students are involved in experiences, and students are reacting to content. The evaluation process includes focusing on a component, collecting information, organizing, analyzing, reporting, and using feedback to modify and adjust the curriculum and instruction.
This journal study examines the gaps between policies promoting innovative instructional strategies in Indian classrooms and the realities teachers face. The study uses qualitative interviews with 17 primary and elementary teachers. Key findings include: significant issues with resources, infrastructure, class sizes, and syllabus pressures preventing policy implementation. Teachers report lack of input in policymaking and inadequate teacher training as reasons for these gaps. The study concludes that addressing classroom realities and increasing teacher involvement in policy are needed to successfully promote instructional innovation.
This document discusses program evaluation models, including the CIPP (Context, Input, Process, Product) model developed by Stufflebeam et al. in the 1960s. The CIPP model guides evaluators in assessing a program's context, inputs, processes, and products. Context evaluation assesses needs and priorities. Input evaluation judges resources and strategies. Process evaluation monitors implementation. Product evaluation determines outcomes and whether goals were achieved. The CIPP model provides a systematic framework for evaluation to make judgments about a program's merit and effectiveness.
Models of Evaluation in Educational TechnologyAlaa Sadik
The document discusses different models for evaluating educational technology:
1. Kirkpatrick's Four-Level Model measures reaction, learning, behavior change, and results. It is the best known model.
2. Bates' ACTIONS Model evaluates access, costs, teaching/learning fit, interactivity, organization, novelty, and speed of different technologies.
3. The EITIMI Model considers elements, instructional design, and impact in a three-step evaluation of technologies.
1) The document discusses two broad approaches to curriculum - technical-scientific and non-technical-non-scientific.
2) The behavioral-rational approach, also known as the Tyler model, defines curriculum objectives, content, instructional methods, sequencing, and assessment.
3) The systems-managerial approach views curriculum as a system with interconnected inputs, processes, and outputs, and emphasizes the managerial roles of motivating stakeholders, organizing implementation, and monitoring evaluation.
This chapter introduces the background, problems, purposes, significance, and scope of the study. It discusses authentic assessment, including written assessment, portfolio assessment, performance assessment, and project assessment. It also summarizes three previous related studies that had different focuses than this study. The statement of problems identifies how this study will examine the implementation of project assessment at SMK 11 Malang. The purpose is to identify this implementation.
Goal-free evaluation (GFE) is an evaluation approach where the evaluator conducts the evaluation without knowledge of the program's stated goals and objectives. The GFE evaluator attempts to observe all actual outcomes of the program, intended or unintended, in order to determine what the program actually does without reference to what it intends to do. GFE has benefits such as reducing bias, uncovering unintended effects, and aligning goals with actual outcomes, but criticisms include the risk of missing important effects and lack of guidance for implementation.

Development of Indonesian National Qualification Framework-Based teaching mod...IJAEMSJORNAL
The learning model developed in this study is a whole series of presentation of teaching material that covers all aspects before being and after learning conducted by lecturers by including teaching materials in the teaching and learning process. The learning model developed is called QI MODELS with the syntax: Goals, Observation, Project, Discussion, Task, Practice, Meaningful, Justification, and Evaluation. Teaching material contains a set of material from the course "Instructional Media Design" that is arranged systematically so that lecturers and students can use it in the learning process in an atmosphere and a comfortable environment for learning. To see the effectiveness of the product an analysis of the learning outcomes of the 26 students taught using the Instructional Media Design textbook developed, and compared with the learning outcomes of students in the class taught with presentation material. Based on the analysis, the average value of basic competencies using instructional materials for Indonesian National Qualification Framework (INQF)-based Instructional Media Design is higher than the average value of students who use presentation materials. Testing the hypothesis used is a different test. From the calculation results obtained tcount = 7.63 while ttable = 2.01. Because tcount = 7.63>ttable = 2.01, it was concluded that there was a significant difference in students' learning achievement using Instructional Media Design textbooks and using presentation material. The effectiveness of the use of Instructional Media Design textbooks is 79.09%.

It then discusses evaluating elearning programs at multiple levels, including infrastructure, administration, educational processes, teacher training, and content. The document also emphasizes the importance of assessing the readiness of education systems to integrate technology. It proposes using indicators and tools to evaluate elearning programs according to dimensions like access to infrastructure, ICT use, teacher training, and support.
The document discusses the meaning, objectives, and scope of educational technology. It defines educational technology as using tools to promote student learning, relying on a broad definition of technology. The objectives of educational technology are to improve the educational process at both the macro level of broad educational goals and the micro level of classroom teaching. The scope of educational technology is as wide as education itself and includes administration, testing, and instructional processes. It aims to make teaching, learning, and training more scientific and effective.
Project-Based Learning Guided Lesson Study Improve the Achievement of Learnin...iosrjce
The research impact project-based learning guided lesson study in Seminar Accounting Education
course has been conducted in 2012. The research was focused to improve student achievement of learning
outcomes in Seminar Accounting Education course at Department of Accounting, State University of Malang.
The learning outcome were defined on skill levels, the exploration ability and reviewing issues (contemporary)
in the field of accounting education both conceptual and factual, creating of research proposal, and final grade.
The research approach was classroom action research guided lesson study. The data were analyzed by
comparing student score with the minimum requirement score and the improvement of score from cycle 1 to
cycle 2. The implementation of project-based learning guided lesson study improved the ability of student to
create research proposal. The average score achieved by the students has surpassed the minimum requirement
(75) in the cycle 1 and 84% of the students have surpassed the minimum requirement, and in the cycle 2, 100%
of the students have surpassed the minimum requirement.
The document discusses curriculum improvement and the curriculum development process. It covers several key points:
1. It defines curriculum improvement and describes it as the continuous modification and betterment of curriculum throughout the school year based on current students. This can be viewed as curriculum development or curriculum change.
2. It outlines the four phases of curriculum development: planning, content and methods, implementation, and evaluation and reporting. It provides details on the steps and processes involved in each phase.
3. It discusses different approaches to curriculum improvement, including technical/scientific, behavioral/rational, systems-managerial, intellectual/academic, and various non-technical approaches like humanistic/aesthetic and reconstructionism. It notes
The systems approach views the teaching-learning process as communication and control between components of a system, with the system composed of a teacher, student, and instructional program interacting. It focuses first on the learner and their needs, then the content and effective instructional strategies and media to meet objectives. The major steps are formulating objectives, deciding media, defining learner characteristics, selecting methods, experiences, materials, roles, implementing, evaluating outcomes, and revising to improve the system. Advantages include identifying suitable resources, integrating technology, and assessing needs over time while allowing changes. Limitations are resistance to change, requiring hard work, and lack of understanding among teachers and administrators.

The document discusses curriculum development and outlines four major tasks:
1) Selecting and defining educational objectives based on analyzing needs and predicting future opportunities and problems. Objectives must be clearly defined and prioritized.
2) Selecting and creating learning experiences, which is described as an artistic process.
3) Organizing learning experiences to maximize their combined impact.
4) Evaluating the curriculum through an ongoing process of checking the validity of assumptions about how the curriculum impacts people, processes, and outcomes.
Smart Curriculum Mapping and Its Role in Outcome-based EducationAlAtfat
Educational development processes are essential for successful academic performance in educational and
technical environments. Teachers and students also need a model and guidelines required for effective
learning. Without effective curriculum mapping, the institutions cannot accurately estimate outcomes and
maximize potential performance on resources. A matrix depicts the relationship between student learning
outcomes (SOs) and topics on the curricular map. The need to earn satisfying produce of education and
achieve considerable progress in the visibility of education equity in completing professional duties is a
primary motivation for learning the curriculum. One of the most effective strategies to increase overall
teaching effectiveness, involvement, or curricular interaction is curriculum development. The mapping
connects all disciplines to academic outcomes and displays well-planned teaches. An excellent example
of a curriculum should be well-prepared and purposefully encourage expertise acquisition. This paper
describes a set of range standards and recommendations for this technique and challenges that affect
curricular map construction. As a result, this strategy will increase the overall performance of education
and the quality of the curriculum.
The document discusses various aspects of the curriculum development process. It describes curriculum development as a long-term, collaborative process involving various stakeholders. It also outlines several models of curriculum development, including Tyler's objectives model, Taba's refinement of Tyler's model, and Hunkins' decision-making model. The document emphasizes that curriculum development requires needs assessment, input from learners, evaluation of impact, and quality control through revision and modification.
This study was an assessment of the evaluation standards of “Practical
Education” module of the Elementary Education Undergraduate Program in
Arab Open University/Jordan. Its main focus was to investigate problems and
views raised by the students in order to develop more accurate standards to
evaluate their performance. The curriculum characteristics of the module as
well as the students’ portfolios and field reports had been reviewed. A
questionnaire and a detailed face-to-face interactive meeting had been
conducted with 55 male and female students in the academic year 2018/2019.
The results show that the students stress the need to adopt practical
applications standards to evaluate the skill goals sought by the curriculum
instead of focusing on their knowledge. The students express their need to
develop their skills in planning, implementation of teaching tasks and
evaluation, while the evaluation standards measure their ability to recall
theoretical information. They stress their need to extend their training period
in field in order to acquire enough practical experience to be more efficient to
carry out their tasks properly. The findings of the study can be applicable for
other countries, especially the developing countries, in the sense of
developing modern evaluation standards for practical field training of their
student teachers, as well as improving curricula that respond to the schools’
requirements in a changing world.
This paper aimed at exploring the results of participant self monitoring using
a checklist instrument in distance learning with flipped classroom setting.
The participants were 11 lecturers of Bioprocess Engineering Study Program
at Institut Teknologi Del (IT Del), Indonesia. The objective of the checklist
instrument was for the lecturers to monitor their students’ understanding
about the lessons given each week. The data generated from the instrument
was analysed descriptively. The results found that pre-class, in-class and outclass
are
important
parts of learning in flipped classroom setting. The data
showed that 56% of students achieved good understading of the knowledge
taught by their lecturers. The same idea as in-class, attendance checking and
interaction between students and lecturers had a key factor in the learning
process. It was found that students’ understanding increased by 20% (very
good), 62% (good) and 18% (moderate) through questions and answers,
discussions, and tests at the end of class. Those were the modes of
interactions that had been done in class. In line with an
out-class checklist, giving assignments and feedback could improve students
understanding into the level of very good (61%), good (27%) and
sufficient (10%). with using a checklist tool, participants in this study selfmonitored
their progress in a flipped classroom while taking distance
learning courses online to improve the quality of their class.
The document discusses the systems approach in education. It defines the systems approach as a problem-solving process that engages a series of steps to solve an identified educational problem. The systems approach has two major parts: system analysis and system synthesis. System analysis involves breaking down the problem into components, while system synthesis uses the data from system analysis to select and implement solution strategies. The systems approach focuses on all elements of instruction, including the learner, content, experiences, and strategies to ensure the components work as an organic whole to achieve the objectives. Some advantages of the systems approach are that it helps identify suitable resources and allows for continuous improvement. Limitations include resistance to change and that it requires hard work.
Development of Dacum as Identification Technique on Job Competence Based-Curr...iosrjce
This document describes a study that used the Dacum (Developing a Curriculum) technique to identify job competencies in the electrical field needed for vocational school curriculum development in Indonesia. The study involved expert electrical workers who identified core competencies and competency elements through facilitated workshops. The competencies were organized into tables according to difficulty level. Questionnaires given to vocational school teachers found that over 120 respondents identified 8 of the competency elements as important for teaching basic electrical installation. The study concluded that identifying competencies through computer-assisted Dacum workshops was an effective and practical method for developing a competency-based curriculum in vocational electrical education.
1. Continuous and comprehensive evaluation (CCE) assesses students on an ongoing basis throughout the year, covering both academic and non-academic areas.
2. Formative evaluation provides feedback during the learning process to improve, while summative evaluation assesses learning at the end to determine grades.
3. Educational technology helps teachers determine content and methods, and evaluate whether students have learned, playing an important role in CCE by analyzing needs, designing instruction, and providing feedback to improve learning.
The document discusses different approaches to curriculum development, including:
- Model by Taba that considers selection and organization of learning experiences.
- Ornstein and Hunkins that consider curriculum experiences as the instructional component.
- Learning takes place through experiencing content mediated by social processes.
It also discusses the development of the New Secondary Education Curriculum in the Philippines which aimed to address problems identified in the secondary education system.

A review on techniques and modelling methodologies used for checking electrom...nooriasukmaningtyas
The proper function of the integrated circuit (IC) in an inhibiting electromagnetic environment has always been a serious concern throughout the decades of revolution in the world of electronics, from disjunct devices to today’s integrated circuit technology, where billions of transistors are combined on a single chip. The automotive industry and smart vehicles in particular, are confronting design issues such as being prone to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Electronic control devices calculate incorrect outputs because of EMI and sensors give misleading values which can prove fatal in case of automotives. In this paper, the authors have non exhaustively tried to review research work concerned with the investigation of EMI in ICs and prediction of this EMI using various modelling methodologies and measurement setups.

Abstract: This article presents the results of a student satisfaction study of an engineering program in relation
to the quality of training received. The objective is to evaluate the existing system and propose a qualitative
approach directing teaching practices to better meet the expectations of different stakeholders.
As an indicator of performance of the process of teaching, descriptive statistical analysis of the level of student
satisfaction evaluated using a questionnaire will confirm the usefulness of the proposed conceptual framework
to improve the quality of training.
Keyword: Satisfaction, Quality, Higher education, innovation, teaching practices
I. Introduction
In a process of continuous improvement, higher education, particularly engineering education covered
by this publication must conquer an array of contextual variables.
Therefore, promoting the quality of education equivalent to reorient the traditional teaching model of
transmitting knowledge to skills development while encouraging on:
- Diversification of pedagogical approaches and their adaptation to different teaching situations,
- The pedagogical relationship on interaction with learners and between them;
- Encouragement of initiative and innovation, effort and educational autonomy;
- Revision of curricula and teaching methods in the direction of development of critical thinking of the learner;
- The focus on the learner as a goal of the pedagogical act and encouragement to develop the culture of
intellectual curiosity and taking the initiative;
- The integration of the learner as a true partner in teamwork, by entrusting tasks of research, innovation and
management and finally developing in him a sense of belonging to the establishment and sense of duty ;
This implies a rationalization of the teaching process. Taking into account the uniqueness of the
pedagogical act, the study aims to assess student satisfaction levels of an engineering program in relation to the
perceived quality of the training.
Nevertheless, the development of a reference framework for teaching practice will be more
organizational in order to harmonize the principles of the teaching process rather than standardize practices [1].
II. Conceptual Framework
The educational innovation is one of the main levers of progress of any educational institution [2]. The
optimization of the teaching process begins with managing interactions between the object of the action learning-
teaching and actors which firstly have a learning task and also a mediation task [3]. The specificity of training,
including the properties of the object which is the teacher, used to develop a conceptual framework adaptable to
the context of the application. Fig.1

2. Impact Of Student Satisfaction On Teaching Practice: A Case Study Of Engineering Department
50
However, a design centered on the learner's needs and integrating the right means at the right time and
for the right activity, allow a juxtaposition of cognitive mechanisms in the teaching of science and technology
[4][5].
It is usual to recognize three major concerns of the teaching of science and technology, "the report to
the teaching practice, the report on educational standards and the report to innovation and research." These
foundations, closely related, can be treated in different ways analysis.
This article offers a basic conceptual framework that will reduce the impact of subjective variables of
the learning process and integrate the student in a participatory and active pedagogy oriented skills development:
the Deming Cycle.
The Deming cycle
The Deming cycle or PDCA cycle (William Edwards Deming, 1950), consists of four steps Plan, Do,
Check and Act, is a systematic and progressive process that can be considered as a referential framework of
instructional practice for teaching technical subjects in an engineering school.
The PDCA method is the most used approach for solving industrial problems. In the field of education
at the University of Tennessee in the USA, two professors John E. Knight and Sandra Allen had deployed the
PDCA method on eight loops where they used the Delphi method to gather knowledge experts, facilitate
consensus of instructional design and develop a rubric for measuring student ability. In this study, the authors
have incorporated the principles of Statistical Process Control and Six Sigma method that will be used primarily
to assess and reduce gaps. [7]
Also, the University of Boras has already led this project for improvement:
- Beginning with step Plan where the work team engages in a self-assessment process that requires an analysis
of the existing situation and the proposal of appropriate solutions to the problems raised. To ensure the
effectiveness of the changes, the choice of the period for completion of this exercise is an important factor.
The University of Boras considered the end of the second semester as the favorable period. First, because staff
had sufficient time to evaluate the system, secondly, because the leaders have enough time during the summer
to plan new strategies for the coming year [8].
- Do: according to the results of self-assessment, the changes are implemented in the first semester of the
academic year according to the strategy used previously. At the end of step DO, the progress of the
verification process begins CHECK.
- Check: This step can be done at the end of first semester to evaluate the results of changes undertaken either in
personnel or at the students who are the main link in the study. Which will lead to further involve them.
- Finally, the Act step can be designed according to the second assessment is that students to conduct
optimization changes together with those that have been proposed to step Plan.
ISO 9001 recommends the implementation of the Deming wheel principle in the process of continuous
improvement of organizations [9].
A previous study suppose the deployment of two optimization loops toward meeting the expectations of
students meet the new needs of the employment market (Table 1) and the other to the continuous improvement
of the process of teaching (Table 2) as a reference guide for teaching practice at the level of science and
technology in an engineering school [6].

The deployment of this continuous improvement cycle (Table 1) will be enriched by the use of quality
tools and methods and will be starting the second wheel optimization of the process of education (Table 2).
Table 2 PDCA applied to the quality of the teaching process
The modeling according to this quality approach will guide the actions of teachers in an optimal
relationship between theory and practice.
So should we first:
diagnose the interactions of the learning process,
denominate the expected skills of the training provided
identify educational acts that will be used to develop these skills
Then assess the skills acquired.
III. Methodology
The relevance of the programs implemented, the adequacy of the training to the expectations of the
employment market, support and the atmosphere in the class are key factors for the quality of training [11][12].
Learning in an engineering school is considered as a complex process of engagement, of investments
and comprehensive development of students realized in a rich context of interactions.
In order to evaluate the current teaching practices and justify the choice of quality approach proposed
by the model of Deming, anonymous surveys of student satisfaction was designed and distributed to students of
Mechanical Engineering Department in Morocco.
3.1 Procedure
This is a study of the percentage of professors who meet the criteria of student satisfaction with the
quality of training.
To do this, the survey includes a total of 24 statements grouped under four themes:
- Theme 1: student involvement
- Theme 2: Learning Relationship
- Theme 3: Resource professorial
- Theme 4: Planning of training
To avoid ambiguity in the understanding of the issues, a preliminary draft was developed and validated
on a first sample representing 10% of the sample size [10].
3.2 Sample
The purpose of the survey is to collect some information on current trends in practices of teachers of
this engineering department, the survey covered all students over two levels of study:
- 2nd year which is the first specialty year (20 students)
- 3rd year represents the second and final year of specialty (15 students)
Totaling 35 students.
The 1st year is omitted from the investigation because it is common core with other departments while
the last two years are rather for specialization.
3.3 Instruments
The survey was developed by the SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) with corresponding
modalities to statements on 4 ranges: 0-25%, 25-50%, 50-75%, 75-100%. These modalities represent the
percentage of the department's professors who meet the criteria of student satisfaction with respect to the quality
of education.

-Analyze The existing situation
-Identify Problems
-Search Causes
-Set targets
-Establish An evaluation grid of continuous progress
DO
-Apply The changes in didactics and pedagogy
-Supervise learning indicators continuously

Further, the criticality of each theme is measured from the product of the number of students responding
to the statement by weight of the response category ranging from 1 to 4 is assigned to the 0-25% intervals 75-
100%. The questionnaire was distributed in paper format.
IV. Results And Interpretation
The results expected by the software were exported to Microsoft Excel. They are presented by axis
evaluation as a summary table of the percentage of students (Table3, 4, 5, 6) who responded in a statement to the
above options terms and accompanied by a histogram [10] Fig.2, Fig.3, Fig.4, Fig.5. The illustrated histogram is
to show the contribution of each element in total. An interpretation accompanies the results shown on Fig.6 and

the syllabus is not always respected.
General interpretation
Wilfredo PARETO (1848-1923) showed that a large majority of situations, a few factors have a
significant impact on the results. This is known as the Pareto 20-80, where 20% of factors explain 80% of the
results. This is a visualization tool, analysis and assistance to decision making that emphasizes the distribution of
facts in order of importance, it enables to choose and focus the action around the issues to be addressed in
priority. It is used for measurable and quantitative data. To identify the most critical issues of the questionnaire,
a Pareto study was conducted. Fig.6.The data considered for this application is the product of the number of
students answering the question by the weight of the response category. To do this, a weight of 1 to 4 was
assigned to the terms of 0-25% and 75-100%.
Figure. 6 Pareto diagram depicting the criticality of the axis of the survey
The plotted curve approaches a straight, which means that 4 axis evaluated at the questionnaire are of
the same order of importance.

Nevertheless, there are some questions that differ greatly (see Table 7), which justifies the choice of the
study in terms of the need for innovation in teaching practices.

However, the traditional teaching model separating the functions of the two main actors of the
classroom teacher, emitting element of information and student passive receiver, no longer meets the
development requirements [11][12][13].The introduction of pedagogical approaches oriented skills development
rather than the accumulation of knowledge is a central issue for the promotion of quality of education.Obviously,
the successful deployment of these models is conditioned by a set of parameters related to the nature of the
course, the teacher and students in person, the availability of certain materials, motivation and acceptance of
change. Thus, the feature of this type of subject lies in the dependence of the context studied.
V. Conclusion
The pedagogical models must now adapt to modernization of the educational system face new social
and economic challenges. The study, organized in a perspective of continuous improvement of the teaching
process, describes the perceptions of engineering students of the quality of training through a qualitative survey.
The questionnaire touches on the impact of the pedagogical intervention style of teachers and the emotional
relationship with their students on learner satisfaction. To reinforce pedagogical and organizational choices of
teaching practices in science and technology, a design of a reference framework is proposed as an iterative
process improvement. However, to further enhance the results, multivariate statistical analysis is possible to
study the correlations between the most critical study data.
