Webometrics Transparent Ranking Of Universities 2016: UNN Tops In Nigeria by TheVictorious(m): 8:40am On Jul 22, 2016 |
Webometrics has recently released the openness ranking of World universities for the second half of 2016, within which less than 50 Nigerian universities were included; With Harvard University (USA) coming first in the world as usual. Openness refers to the total number of pdf files of a university according to google. It relies on information (statistics) of web publications of a University for a Specific period of time; available on google scholar. It therefore based on volume of research articles published by a university. The quantity of google scholarly articles a university has reveals how much of research is being conducted by the university; which is what openness ranking is all about – a university’s research output. Openness rank is a part of the many indicators that make up several university rankings, others being excellence, presence and visibility; for Webometrics. Although it does not exactly specify the impact of the research papers a university has; the openness indicator however reveals the extent to which a school is engaged in research, which is what world class institutions are known for.

Quality over Quantity. I'm sure transparency is just an index in the whole ranking stuff. Why not publish the rankings based on the other indices? We tend to select what appeal to us and amplify them. 9 Likes |
