TKU GEARED UP FOR INTERNAL ASSESSMENT
Internal assessment for the 2007 academic year was kicked off by the Department of Finance last Monday (4/21). In the same week, the Department of French, E-learning Executive Master’s Program of Business Administration in Global Chinese Management, the Graduate Institute and China Studies, and the Department of Chinese, were also assessed. This internal assessment is a preparation for the external assessment conducted by the Ministry of Education between March and June next year. At this stage, departments can invite their own assessors to evaluate them on their performance in the following five categories: “Goals, specialties, and self-reflection,” “Curricula design and Teaching quality,” “Student Learning and Student Affairs,” “Research and Professionalism,” and finally “Alumni achievement.” There will be a total of 46 departments to be assessed with 18 more to be assessed this week.

UNIVERSITY PAPER WORK FLOW GETS A BOOST WITH BETTER IT
Anyone who has seen Monty Python’s “Brazil”, or read Kafka’s “Metamorphosis” should know very well how the absurdity and terror of too much paper work could do to one’s psyche. Well, that won’t happen at TKU. With its new “Documentation Management System,” which was launched on 3/14, no more piles of paper, no more countless slips of yellow tag paper, and no more worries about losing one’s seal. This web-based system allows all university staff and faculty members to have access to documents regardless of time and place. There is also a digital signature system based on the Citizen Digital Certificate (CDC) developed by the Ministry of Interior that enables people concerned to sign documents on line. The university also ensures that a highly secure verify mechanism is at work to guard authenticity, should the person concerned does not have the CDC on him or her. Apart from this feature, this DMS is equipped with many functions such as notepad, preview, drafting, and registration. With these functions, there is no more hassle of physically delivering paper work.
