The Elaboration of an Inventory of Evaluation of the Quality of Usage of an Academic Establishment

Abstract

The Social Responsibility of the University (SRU) was born out of a wish of the European Higher-Education Area (EHEA) to build a European space of education. From this perspective, the universities become straightforward urban actors integrated in the urban area where they are implemented. Our research aims to elaborate an inventory of the quality of usage of an academic establishment. To this end, five studies were conducted in four French universities in order to design a tool composed of 97 items in which the intra and inter-judge reliability is completely satisfactory. Even though intercultural validation analyses prove to be necessary, this evaluation inventory of the quality of usage of an academic establishment seems to be adaptable at European level.
