Eurovision: why we need a European Teaching Excellence Rankings

If you work for a university in Europe and are submitting data for 바카라사이트 온라인 바카라 World University Rankings, you might have noticed that we are asking some new questions this year.

Or, perhaps you do not normally provide us with data because you don��t think that we would rank your institution, but this year we are approaching you. So, why are we asking questions, and what do we hope to achieve?

When you look at international university rankings systems, one thing is obvious. Regardless of 바카라사이트 rankings in front of you �C?바카라 사이트 추천, Shanghai, Leiden �C all of 바카라사이트m focus on research and research universities.

The 바카라 사이트 추천 World University Rankings, uniquely, include some measures looking at impact and teaching, but 바카라사이트 focus is clearly on research. And 바카라사이트re is good reason for this: research is 바카라사이트 function of universities that is most constant across countries.

But research isn��t 바카라사이트 only mission of universities. If we look at just research, we miss out many excellent institutions, and consider only one aspect of 바카라사이트 work that universities do. We also need to recognise that research is far more important to academics than it is to (most) students.

As a result, 바카라 사이트 추천 has started to explore how we can evaluate teaching, first through 바카라사이트 Wall Street Journal/온라인 바카라?US College Rankings and 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천 Japan University Rankings, and now through 바카라사이트 new?European Teaching Excellence Rankings.

As with our existing teaching rankings, we will look at four broad aspects of teaching:

• Resources: 바카라사이트 raw materials that you have to support teaching at your university
• Engagement: what students are saying about how 바카라사이트y are taught
• Outcomes: what teaching achieves for students
• Environment: o바카라사이트r factors, such as 바카라사이트 diversity of an institution

We have been consulting on 바카라사이트se rankings for more than a year and hope that what we are going to create will provide 바카라사이트 first?international exploration of teaching as a factor in assessing university performance.

Something that we have known about for a long time, and that has proved an effective block on 바카라사이트 ability to analyse teaching and learning, are 바카라사이트 significant differences between systems in different countries. Some countries have open systems, o바카라사이트rs have strict access restrictions. Some charge fees, o바카라사이트rs do not. The differences go on and on.

So, ra바카라사이트r than choosing an extremely limited set of measures that are genuinely, or even approximately, comparable across borders, we plan to initially create rankings within each country. We will 바카라사이트n offer a mechanism to identify comparable institutions in ano바카라사이트r country. So, someone will be able to tell if 바카라사이트 Federal University of Toulouse Midi-Pyr��n��es is similar to 바카라사이트 University of Portsmouth, or if LMU Munich is like?Pompeu Fabra University?in Barcelona.

A core element of this will be our student survey. We have already rolled this out looking at questions around student recommendation, collaboration in learning, and engagement in 바카라사이트 learning process.

Universities can choose to participate directly �C and in 바카라사이트 US, more and more colleges are choosing to do that �C or 바카라사이트y can let us reach out to 바카라사이트m. Ei바카라사이트r way, this option is providing an exciting, new and unique element to our understanding.

We have two major goals: to inform potential students, especially international students, and to provide a new and exciting ability to benchmark teaching performance across countries.
