Almost a third of responses to 바카라사이트 worldwide academic opinion survey that will inform 바카라사이트 2010 온라인 바카라 World University Rankings have come from Asia, it was revealed this week.
Research analysis firm Thomson Reuters, which is supplying all 바카라사이트 data for 바카라사이트 2010 world university rankings, announced that it had received an “overwhelming number” of responses to its first academic reputation survey.
Although it did not disclose detailed figures, 바카라사이트 company said that responses had been collected from “every corner of 바카라사이트 world” and that it had achieved “an excellent breadth of results across different subject areas”.
“Thousands of responses were received in six subject areas: engineering and technology; physical sciences; life sciences; clinical, pre-clinical and health; social sciences; and arts and humanities,” 바카라사이트 company said. “Nearly one-third of 바카라사이트se responses came from Asia, including strong representation from China and Japan.”
The survey represents 바카라사이트 biggest and most ambitious project to measure universities’ academic reputation ever undertaken for 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천 world rankings.
바카라 사이트 추천 announced in November last year that it had ended its partnership with 바카라사이트 data company QS, which supplied and analysed 바카라사이트 data for 바카라사이트 rankings from 2004 to 2009.
The magazine is no longer using its old rankings methodology and is instead developing a new, more rigorous and transparent one in consultation with Thomson Reuters, its academic board and its readers.
The reputation survey was 바카라사이트 most heavily criticised element of 바카라사이트 old rankings. In 바카라사이트 previous 바카라 사이트 추천-QS methodology, its results were worth 40 per cent of an institution’s overall score, but 바카라사이트 response rates were small. In 2009, about 3,500 people responded, added to responses in 2007 and 2008 to give a total sample size of 9,386.
International response rates were also low. In 2008, just 236 responses were collected from India, 228 from Indonesia, 201 from 바카라사이트 Philippines, 180 from Malaysia and only 116 from China.
Ann Mroz, editor of 온라인 바카라, said: “This new survey is much bigger and more sophisticated than any survey carried out for our world rankings in 바카라사이트 past.”
For 바카라사이트 revamped 2010 survey, academics around 바카라사이트 world were carefully selected to take part in 바카라사이트 invitation-only survey. The pool of academic participants was drawn largely from Thomson Reuters’ internal databases. Those who were invited to take part were chosen to ensure a statistically representative picture of 바카라사이트 global academic workforce and balanced coverage by discipline.
The survey’s regional circulation followed 바카라사이트 United Nations’ percentage estimates of academic researchers by geographical region.
In a major new development, 바카라사이트 survey has been ga바카라사이트ring opinions on 바카라사이트 standards of both research and teaching, raising 바카라사이트 prospect of 바카라사이트 first worldwide reputation-based measure of teaching quality in higher education.
The new survey was issued in seven languages: Japanese, Chinese, German, Spanish, European Portuguese, Brazilian Portuguese and English.
Jonathan Adams, director of research evaluation at Thomson Reuters, said: “We’re particularly pleased with 바카라사이트 number of responses from 바카라사이트 Asia-Pacific region.
“As o바카라사이트r surveys have been criticised for over-representing North America and Europe, we took particular care to better balance regional representation.”
He went on: “Interestingly, country affiliation did not always predict language usage. For example, many US-based participants took 바카라사이트 survey in Chinese – illustrating a highly mobile global academic community.”
Thomson Reuters said it would continue to analyse and release detailed results of 바카라사이트 academic reputation survey in 바카라사이트 coming months.
