抄録

The purpose of this paper is to provide (1) a historical sketch of institutional self-evaluation of Japanese colleges and universities, (2) its present situation, and (3) main issues found by surveys and evaluation reports made by the institutions. In 1991 Standards for the Establishment of Universities was revised, which expects every college and university to organize in their institutions a self-evaluation system, conduct a self-study, and evaluate their performance. By the end of 1994, 72.7 per cent of the four-year institutions made such an organization for self-evaluatiun. However, only 32. 3 per cent of them have issued some kind of evaluation reports. A thorough examination of these reports and some related surveys indicates some issues involved in the self-evaluation movement. Some of them are as follows: (1) Many colleges and universities have responded to the revised Standards so quickly that self-evaluation systems were easily formed. However, it seems that many of them have not functioned properly yet. (2) Many of the institutions report facts ant information about the institutions, such as the number of students, faculty members, facilities, curriculum. Little evaluation, however, was made about their missions and purposes of the institutions. (3) It has not been clear how the institutions have used the self-evaluation as a tool for improvement and development of the institutions. (4) So far, the institutional self-evaluation process has not been in a part of institutional accreditation system in Japan. Althougt there have been some efforts to strengthen the system, many institutions seem not to be willing to change the situation.
