Methodology

What do grades mean? Why does it include the ability to fulfill the requirements and the usefulness of the object?

Each category is graded from 1 to 5, with 5 being the best. The average only includes helpfulness, preparedness and presentation, not the ability to fulfill the requirements and the usefulness of the subject. Teachers can enter the top 10 list if they have at least 30 ratings. The condition for schools to be included in the list is that at least 10 teachers have already received evaluations from the school, and a total of at least 100 evaluations have already been made.

How is the top 10 list determined?

The teacher's evaluations are weighted going back 3 years and are included in the school's evaluation in such a way that more recent evaluations are given more weight. To be included in the list, a teacher must have at least 30 evaluations. The top 10 schools are also available on the site. The condition for schools to be included in the list is that 10 teachers have already received evaluations from the school and a total of at least 50 evaluations have already been made.

The rules for its weighting are as follows:

  • In the case of 1 assessed year, it is assessed at 100%,

  • In the case of 2 evaluated years, the 1st and 2nd years are evaluated at a ratio of 60% / 40%,

  • In the case of 2 evaluated years, if there was no evaluation in the last year, the 2nd and 3rd years are evaluated at a ratio of 60% / 40%,

  • In the case of 2 evaluated years, if there was no evaluation two years ago, the 1st and 3rd years are evaluated at a ratio of 70% / 30%,

  • In case of 3 assessed years, years 1, 2 and 3 are assessed at 45% / 35% / 20%.

Additionally, the ratings for the past 3 years and under are calculated with a 90% weight in the total assessment, with older ratings counting as the remaning 10%. This means that ratings that are older than 3 years will have less impact on a teacher’s average than they used to. The top 10 list is constantly updated and is automatically calculated based on the average of three evaluation criteria, based on the last 3 years. The three aspects: helpfulness, preparedness, presentation style.
