Summary/Abstract: In the article, an attempt has been made to conceptualize the problems of effectiveness and usefulness within education by examining the quality of teaching from an operational perspective. The effectiveness of an educational aim is understood as being related to the social functions of education; usefulness is defined as benefits related to the realization of these functions and acquired by individuals and groups from the educational process. Effectiveness and usefulness, when treated as aspects of the quality of education, are placed in an evaluative context consisting of: the aims of education, objects concerned with training and expectations, the normative sphere (with respect to education problems) as well as areas, methods and directions of assessment.
