Information from the abstract
A hybrid analytic–holistic evaluation framework is developed and validated for assessing Information Technology (IT) undergraduate capstone projects in Thai higher education. Drawing on five academic years of multi-stakeholder assessment data, the research identifies five critical dimensions influencing evaluation outcomes: student competency performance, project proposal quality, advising effectiveness, panel variability, and assessment-criteria weighting. By integrating structured analytic rubrics with holistic panel judgments, the framework addresses persistent challenges of grading inconsistency, evaluator bias, and misalignment between academic assessment and industry expectations. Statistical analyses indicate that documentation quality, project innovation, and internship performance are the strongest predictors of final panel grades, explaining 72% of evaluation variance. The principal contribution lies in providing empirical evidence of assessment variability and a validated, replicable model that improves fairness, transparency, accreditation compliance, and alignment with professional IT competencies. The framework supports outcome-based education standards (ABET, ASIIN, ETQA) and offers practical guidance for enhancing quality assurance and graduate employability.
