The implementation and use of metrics is practicable today. Regardless of industry or effort, a set of indicators will certainly be used to ensure efficiency and progressivity within the organization. And yes, even a research study is not exempt from this fact. There is what is known as an evaluation research map.
To formulate the relevant research metrics that should be included in the assessment map, it is necessary to make the metrics practical and real to the point. In most cases, people tend to forget about the need to formulate realistic indicators. There are problems here.
To set up a proper balanced scorecard, there are actually four areas that you need to consider: internal stakeholders, external interest rates, finance and business, and growth and innovation. As in the case of a typical balanced scorecard, these four areas act as “buckets” or “prospects”. Regardless of the indicators that you do, depending on the nature of the metric itself, it will be placed in the appropriate bucket or area.
Among the four buckets, the most important is that of external stakeholders.
Thus, it makes sense to prioritize this particular perspective or area. External holders actually cover the general public, the academic community itself and students. To develop relevant metadata here, the manager must set goals and appropriate strategies to achieve these goals. To do this, it is necessary to define quantitative measures that include student satisfaction, retention and retention, employability, community perception, public relations and access.
For the school will inevitably achieve their goals and objectives. What remains very difficult is the definition of goals that correspond to the bucket or the run. For this you need to keep in mind two goals.
The first goal is the development of the scope, quality, accountability and availability of training services, programs and proposals for students. The second goal, on the other hand, requires external stakeholders to assume the integral role of the institution as a leader in the academic and cultural sectors. This can be done through joint activities and strong relationships with the community, business groups and non-profit groups.
Now that these two goals are agreed, let's move on to defining and developing appropriate strategies for realizing these goals. For the first goal, you have two strategies that you only want to consider. The first relates to the success and access of students. You will need to pay more attention to quality, evaluation of support services, student learning outcomes, and accessibility. The second strategy focuses on outreach and responsiveness. The focus will be on establishing strong relationships with the community and its academic needs.
There are also two strategies to consider when reaching the second goal. The first requires actions that contribute to the creation of a cultural center or center for the academic community. Thus, the presence of the school can become stronger and more tangible. The second strategy includes marketing activities and networking with academic groups and enterprises.
Keeping these elements in mind, it would be easier to develop the most appropriate evaluation research system for your school. Just stick with practicality and realism to ensure a smoother flow for the entire process.
