Abstract
The paper proposes a model for the continuous improvement of academic teaching aimed at delivering a programmed excellent learning in perspective. The proposed Teaching Evaluation Model (TEM) is a dynamic and open system based on the Deming Cycle (PLAN-DO-CHECK-ACT). The objective pursued by the model is to match the expected learning with real learning. The results of this work are intended to highlight the field application of the TEM approach. Specifically, the application consists of a web-based tool conceived and designed to allow teachers and institutions to build a continuous improvement of the teaching and learning processes. By enhancing the interior design education and hence the profession itself, the model reveals that technology-enhanced assessment may deliver tangible benefits for learners, teachers and institutions.
