ABSTRACT

How good, then, were the results? The question demands several answers. We can say something about the audience reached by programmes and about students’ examination results. In some cases we can go on to add something about students’ performance as teachers. All these answers use administrators’ measures, showing how far programmes reached explicit or implicit targets and, in some cases, how their success or failure compared with those of alternatives. But there are also a few data which shed light on students’ opinions about their work and about the role of gender in determining public and individual success.
