Abstract
The main aim of the paper is to explain the best approaches to develop and enhance analysis and evaluation in academic programmes and a real business world. The research is based on direct and indirect observation and experience in last forty years working in the Former Yugoslavia and the United Kingdom. The main questions are how and what are best methods to develop the student’s higher-level skills, including analysis and evaluation, and secondly, how to use these skills in academic and professional context. The paper recognises that an analysis and evaluation are part and prerequisite to other higher-level skills which include onceptualisation and critical thinking, justification, synthesis and creativity. Research conclusions are founded on qualitative analysis. The main value of the paper is to shows relevant and valid academic practice and practical implementations to cultivate and boost higher level skills. The content will defines the key terms, practical steps to impose use of analysis and evaluation, recommended by Quality Assurance Agency - QAA (2018), supported by strong endorsement of Credit Level Descriptors for Higher Education set up by South East England Council - SEEC (2016), completion of an ethical form prior to any research proposal, project or final dissertation, and finally, an effective check and control of plagiarism using, for example, Turnitin (www.turnitinuk.com). In parallel to this, HE institutions must rigorously implement these standards within academic documents such as Module Descriptor Definitive Document (2018); Assignment (content, structure and required elements) and Exam questions; Content and guidance within assessment criteria; Mark descriptors; and Assessment and feedback to students. The paper will show how the above-mentioned documents support and execute use and development of analysis and evaluation using real example and evidence. Apart of academic relevance of analysis and evaluation some practical guidance will be given how to use them in holistic and range of different tools and techniques in everyday life, problem solving and decision-making process. Some remarks to other higher-level skills such as, ethical awareness and application, interpersonal and communication skills, synthesis and original research will be given in strict context to explain relevance and importance of analysis and evaluation.
