9. Ranking should have multiple
model
The right ranking is
personalized, which satisfy
your goals, objectives,
mission, values

• Areas of study
• Specialized vs broad/comprehensive university
• Size of institution
Expert ranking
• Teaching & Learning
• Research
• Knowledge Transfer
• International Orientation
• Regional Engagement
11. Personalized ranking
other formative description data should be
taken into account, which are not usually
presented in the known league tables (U-
multirank is on the way)
as employment opportunities, tuition fee,
accommodation, campus facilities,
proximity to home etc…
13. Formal learning
normally delivered by trained teachers in a
systematic intentional way within university, is
always organised and structured, and has
learning objectives. From the learner’s
standpoint, it is always intentional: i.e. the
learner’s explicit objective is to gain knowledge,
skills and/or competences.
Example: university courses

14. Informal learning
is a general term for learning outside of a standard
school setting. It can refer to various forms of
alternative education. Informal learning occurs
through the experience of day-to-day situations,
which typically take place naturally and
spontaneously as part of other activities. It is
learning from life, play, exploring, etc.
Example: situated and spontaneous learning,
during a meal at table with peers or professors

15. Non-formal learning
is organized learning outside the formal learning
system, which do not either have the level of
curriculum, syllabus, accreditation and
certification associated with 'formal learning', but
have more structure than that associated with
'informal learning.
Example: learning by coming together with people
with similar interests and exchanging viewpoints,
in clubs or in youth organizations, workshops.

16. Where did the 80% come from?
http://blog.learningelevated.com/archives/165
17. Marcia Conner (2005) :“Most learning
doesn’t occur in formal training
programs. It happens through
processes not structured or sponsored
by an employer or a school. Informal
learning accounts for over 75% of the
learning taking place in organizations
today.”
http://www.informl.com/where-did-the-80-come-from/
18. Allen Tough (Ontario Institute for Studies
in Education of the University of
Toronto, 1999) “Another finding was
that we were looking at all learning
efforts, including ‘professionally
planned’ or ‘academic or institutional’
or whatever you want to call them;
formal. We found a 20/80% split.
http://www.informl.com/where-did-the-80-come-from/
19. Princeton University Learning
Philosophy 70/20/10 formula* that
describes how learning occurs:
70% from real life and on-the-job
experiences, tasks and problem
solving – informal learning, 20% from
feedback and from observing and
working with role models. 10% from
formal training.
http://www.informl.com/where-did-the-80-come-from/
20. In the known rankings (THE, QS,
ARWU) the most indicators refers to
formal learning (as for bachelor level),
whereas “most learning doesn’t occur
in formal learning program”
P.S. The citation and reputation indices are mostly refer to
universities scientific and research activities. Formally
research work starts at master level. Indeed, scientific
and research internship have informal education
components. But this is not less complex question how
to measure the scientific work.
The personalization of master or postgraduate education
level certainly is necessary.
21. Anticipation
The gap between online and face-to-face
learning is decreasing with interdisciplinary,
networked and online learning
developments
the differentiation of formal learning quality in
various universities becomes less visible
Ranking’s place based on formal learning
quality description becomes less important
22. Best university rankings
But informal learning will have crucial
importance as well as now on condition of
the formal learning quality standards
performance.
So we should plot the future university
rankings for entrance based on the
personalized formal learning ranking plus
university’s informal learning quality.
