Traditionally the role of the external examiners in UK universities or more formally Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) is that of quality assurance (QA). Typically, an experienced academic who is not affiliated with the HEI (i.e., someone from another university) is invited to act as an external examiner for a particular course or a module. The external examiner’s primary role is to provide impartial and independent advice to ensure academic standards are upheld for a degree program; and that the degree is comparable with similar programs across the country and that the achievements of students are also comparable with students on courses at other universities. This primary role makes external examiners highly valued people in UK universities, and as a result, their views are nearly always taken seriously. Over and above this recognized primary role of QA, external examiners can also be engaged by the host university in other ways. These additional roles or tasks of the external examiner can help enhance teaching and learning in higher education. This chapter will reflect on the range of roles, including the ones that go beyond QA.
传统上,英国大学或更正式的高等教育机构(HEIs)的外部考官的角色是质量保证(QA)。通常,一个与高等教育学院无关的有经验的学者(即来自另一所大学的人)被邀请担任某一特定课程或模块的外部考官。外部审查员的主要作用是提供公正和独立的建议,以确保学位课程的学术标准得到维护;这个学位与全国各地的类似课程具有可比性,学生的成绩也与其他大学课程的学生具有可比性。这种主要角色使得外部考官在英国大学中受到高度重视,因此,他们的观点几乎总是被认真对待。除了公认的QA主要角色之外,主办大学还可以通过其他方式聘请外部考官。外部考官的这些额外角色或任务可以帮助提高高等教育的教与学。本章将反映角色的范围,包括QA之外的角色。
