Abstract: A turning point has been reached in the evaluation of educational quality; universities have also entered the age of gfourth-generation evaluationh in which students and teachers enhance their joint interpretations through lectures and enable more refined lectures. Given this background, many studies have been performed on the enhancement of student satisfaction with educational quality. On the other hand, quality assurance in university education has been researched as an important topic. Therefore, the Central Education Council, an advisory body of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology (MEXT) has begun to consider the introduction of the concept of ggraduate attributes,h which refers to the gminimum ability that students should acquire upon graduation.h As a result, great importance has been placed on the achievement of a balance between the gstudent satisfactionh and geducation qualityh in order to improve the quality of un!
iversities in a comprehensive manner. This study proposes a model measuring educational effects for assurance of education quality and improvement of student satisfaction, focusing on the concepts of both ggraduate attributesh and gfourth-generation evaluation.h This paper proposes the concept for the construction of the model, designs the method for data acquisition, and shows the results of actual analysis by structural equation modeling. Further, with regard to quality assurance for graduate attributes, this paper classifies students on the basis of their reasons for taking the course and the learning outcomes, then proposes a model for improving studentsf learning styles and analyzes their ability using the model. Furthermore, in this paper, it is verified that the proposed models meet the authenticity criteria of fourth-generation evaluation.
