This study was designed, as the sixth installment of the series, to analyze the results of student evaluations of teaching. Subjects of this study were students in three "Methods of Teaching 02" classes of the non-credit teacher-training course offered in the autumn term of the academic years2005-2007 at St. Andrew's University. The current questionnaire was developed by the self-evaluation committee of this university and has been used since 2002. This questionnaire included fifteen items (Q3-17) designed for all students and three special ones (Q18-20) designed for students who took the teacher-training course. One of the special items (Q20) was a question to evaluate the level of the student's aspiration to become a teacher. The subjects were divided into three groups by level of aspiration:high, middle, and low. The study demonstrated that there was a significant difference between the three groups in the evaluative scores of the common items. Statistical analysis revealed that the mean evaluative score in the high aspiration group was significantly higher than in the other groups, in any of three items: Q5 (highly-motivated attitude), Q7 (interest in class), and Q17 (satisfaction level of teaching). These findings could be an informative guide to the appropriate way to apply the results of student evaluations of teaching and to improve teaching methods in the future in the teacher-training course.
