Student ECTS Credit Feedback Surveys are implemented in order to fine tune ECTS credits of courses which are mainly calculated and allocated by the instructors according to the workload components they declared in the course descriptions. However, accumulated experience shows that the current design of surveys requires immense cognitive load on part of the student. At present, survey questions are posed in such a way that it requires the student to undertake a self-appraisal process regarding the workload of learning activities for a particular course. This article discusses an alternative design for adjusting ECTS credits; a holistic perspective based on pairwise comparisons of workloads of courses. Binary relationships are unfolded using Thurstone scaling and then rescaled to ECTS units through a measurement error model. Monte Carlo simulations are used to demonstrate the robustness of the estimators

İkili Karşılaştırma ile Öğrenci AKTS Kredisi Geribildirim Anketlerinin Tasarımı ve Analizi

Öğrenci AKTS Kredisi Geri Bildirim Anketleri; derslere ait olan ve öğretim elemanları tarafından ders tanımında bildirilen iş yükü unsurları baz alınarak hesaplanan ve belirlenen AKTS kredileri hakkında geri dönüt elde etmek amacıyla uygulanırlar. Ne var ki, uygulamada, anketlerin mevcut tasarımının öğrenci için yoğun bilişsel yük teşkil ettiği görülmüştür. Mevcut anket soruları, öğrencinin her bir ders için gereken öğrenme aktivitelerinin getirdiği iş yüküne dair bir özdeğerlendirme sürecine girmesini gerektirmektedir. Bu makale AKTS kredilerini ayarlamak için alternatif bir tasarım sunmaktadır; derslere bağlı işyüklerinin ikili karşılaştırmasına dayanan bir bütünsel perspektif. İkili ilişkiler Thurstone ölçeği kullanılarak ortaya çıkarılır ve bir ölçüm hata modeli aracılığıyla AKTS birimleri olarak yeniden ölçeklendirilirler. Monte Carlo simülasyonları ile tahminleyicilerin özellikleri raporlanmıştır.
