Abstract
In the United Kingdoms’ higher education system, teaching and learning are currently under review to evaluate both social and individual investment to tertiary education. The UK government introduced the Teaching Excellence Framework and Student Outcomes Framework to assess the quality of undergraduate teaching in universities and other higher education providers. There are 14 research projects which are identifying multiple ways to measure Learning Gain, a key component of the Teaching Excellence Framework and Student Outcomes Framework. Teaching Excellence encompasses Teaching Quality, the Learning Environment as well as Student Outcomes and Learning Gain, it uses both core metrics and a narrative to evaluate individual universities performance. Current research evaluate methodologies to measure Learning Gain and determine the potential suitability and scalability of possible measures across the sector. This paper describes the current state of policy and research against the specific background of the UK higher education sector.
