摘要

摘要本研究综述了三种大学排名方法:Quacquarelli Sysmonds大学排名、泰晤士高等教育世界大学排名和上海交通大学世界大学学术排名。它还旨在提出两种新的方法，一种用于世界大学排名，另一种用于阿拉伯大学排名，并为新指标提出数据收集工具(如果有的话)。一项在线调查获得了定量数据，两次焦点小组讨论产生了定性数据。调查结果显示，受访者排名的一些指标的重要性与三个国际排名系统相似，而其他指标则不同。由于排名系统忽略了院校之间的差异，导致对阿拉伯地区大学的不公平评估，焦点小组建议为这些指标设定新的权重。因此，两种排名系统都提出了新的分指标。

A new perspective on university ranking methods worldwide and in the Arab region: facts and suggestions

ABSTRACT This study reviews three university ranking methodologies: Quacquarelli Sysmonds University Rankings, The Times Higher Education World University Rankings, and the Shanghai Jiao Tong University’s Academic Ranking of World Universities. It also aims to suggest two new methodologies, one for World University Ranking and one for Arab University Ranking, and to propose data collecting tools for the new indicators if any. An online survey which elicited quantitative data and two focus-group discussions which produced qualitative data were used. The results of the survey show that the importance of some indicators as ranked by the respondents was similar to those found in the three international ranking systems, while others were not. The focus-groups suggested new weights for the indicators, since ranking systems overlook the differences between the institutions, resulting in unfair assessment of universities in the Arab region. Thus, new sub-indicators were proposed for both ranking systems.

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
