Teacher KPI and Observations

Academic Reviews

An article translation

Problems with translating articles  Requires specialized knowledge  Translation knowledge/certificate  Academic field knowledge  Takes time away from writing good articles  One Article: An average of 90 hours  Just Translation: More than 20 hours!!  Requires communication between the author and the translator  Takes limited resources for an unknown usefulness (How important to ALMA University is one teacher’s article?)  Requires checking the quality of the translations

Solution?  Outsource Translation  A translation agency has experience  A translation agency is specialized  There is more time for improving the articles themselves  There is more time for improving the university’s environment  Competition!  Translation for the top 5 articles per semester can be paid for by ALMA University  It’s not perfect, but something is better than nothing!
