description | Evaluation plays an essential role in the educational process of colleges and universities since it is vital to the continuous improvement of education quality. Many models have been used to evaluate institutes’ programs, courses, and projects, but Stuffelbeam’s CIPP (2003) is mainly applied in curriculum evaluation. Based on this model, this study aims at evaluating the context of translation courses offered in the Departments of English, Colleges of Languages at Salahaddin University-Erbil, University of Sulaimani, and University of Duhok. This paper adopted a quantitative method. A Likert scale questionnaire was designed based on the C component of Stuffelbeam’s CIPP (2003) evaluation model. The translation teachers and fourth-year students represented the sample of the study. The data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS 24). Findings show that the context of translation courses in the Departments of English has gotten little attention in designing these courses. Thus, it is recommended to reconsider the context in designing translation courses in the Departments of English at Colleges of languages in Kurdistan universities. |
