Assessing the Education Quality of Faculty Members from Students' Viewpoint at Zanjan Farhangian University

The present study was conducted to evaluate the educational quality of faculty members from students' point of view.  The present study was applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-case study in terms of data collection. Hence, the statistical population included all 15 faculty members of Farhangian University of Zanjan in Shahid Beheshti and Al-Zahra campuses in the academic year 2009-2010, that they were examined by census due to limited professors. Moreover, 129 out of 929 students were selected by Cochran's formula and simple random sampling method to evaluate the quality of teaching by professors. Three researcher-made questionnaires were used to collect data and then the data were analyzed using T-sample and SPSS software. The findings showed the students claimed that scientific ability and teaching methods were less than average and the law enforcement of professors was not at an acceptable level. According to these findings, the design of correctional programs in educational groups, such as holding training courses, can provide a foundation of scientific strengthening of professors and their familiarity with modern teaching methods.
