Swedish term or phrase: kursvärdering vs. kursutvärdering
kursvärdering and kursutvärdering both translate to "course evaluation" - but there is a minor difference in nuance here.

Any suggestions as to how to express the terms differently in English?

Explanation:
Here's a good one, you don't find everywhere, but hey, it's from an esteemed university. I can't speak to how these are used by simpler folk...

"Kursvärdering innebär att studenterna på en kurs framför sina synpunkter på och erfarenheter av kursen. Detta sker ofta genom en enkät.

Kursutvärdering innebär att både studenternas och lärarnas synpunkter sammanställs och dokumenteras. Här kan även andra underlag ingå, t ex examinationsresultat."

And they use the terms I give you here. Which I could live with, tho would look into it more. Good question.

lecturer-end syllabus appraisal vs. student-end assessment of the course


Explanation:
Notes: 1. course appraisal vs. (g/hits > golf) course rating or ranking by the lecturers themselves and
2. assessment of course, as opposed to course assessment work.
3. I'm unsure the website of Uppsala Uni. - pace both of the native Swedish women lecturers at my UK Uni. who graduated from there - with 'course evaluation' for kursvärdering is wholly free of ambiguity as to who is doing the evaluation, albeit with students' input.

Example sentence(s):
  • Frågebanken kan utgöra en inspirationskälla vid utformandet av kursvärderingsenkäter. Här finns en mängd kursvärderingsfrågor inordnade under huvudrubrikerna "Förutsättningar", "Process" och "Utfall/Resultat".
