Metrics need to be displayed, unless of course you believe that measuring delivered outcomes is irrelevant, equality of outcome proponents like that idea and to hell with equality of opportunity and meritocracy, except in the 'real world' that doesn't work. And as most of the University sector 'management' love stats, if only to beat the Academics with them, I can't see it changing much.
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Reading this article I wonder whether Australian taxpayers and student fee payers, know how well their money is being spent.
You'be got to be kidding me. Sure there are many problems with the dashboards and our over reliance on metrics but whether icons are "masculine" or "feminine" ... please!!!
