Popis: The paper outlines a method used to carry out an illuminative evaluation of a first‐year laboratory course. A brief outline of the organisation of the course is given. This is followed by details of the methods of collecting information and the method of sampling the groups of students. These methods were constrained by the time available to carry out the evaluation. Comparisons are made between methods of collecting data. The method of reporting is stated with examples. The paper attempts to show the advantages of this style of evaluation for an idiosyncratic evaluation exercise carried out within an establishment using an evaluator external to the department involved.
