Abstract

The antecedent points of reference that shape methodological decisions
What does the unit (and its staff) need & want?
What is the context for the evidence – what needs to be provided and what type of interpretation is needed?
What assumptions does the unit (and its staff )have? What are the assumptions of students, academic staff, senior leaders and other external stakeholders hold about the unit and its programs?
What is the theoretical grounding of the unit’s practice? How consistent is it with the rest of the institution’s mindset?
What is practical given internal expectations, regulatory compliance requirements, timelines and resource limitations?
