    Profs now outsourcing marking to India

     

    To India, a veteran university professor with the tedium and time of grading papers has created a company that outsources the job.  In academia with a dozen and a thick skin, Dr. Chandru Rajam is prepared to a weather.  To asses, the Virtual-TA which hires an offshores university-educated staff, grade and comment on student assignments is the only one of the EduMetry services.  However, it is by far the most controversial.  Their intent is not to cheapen or degrade the learning and teaching equation. They never outsourced the responsibilty, they are just outsourcing the activity.

    Since it was created five years ago, EduMetry has assembled a team of adjunct professors retired teachers.  The homemakers with the masters degrees and the other university-educated staff.  Most of the India although Singapore and Malaysia to grade 2,000 student assignments a week.  A selling point is the extensive comments that accompany each grade something graduate assistants and professors that canm seldom supply. The vast majority of the comments tend to be negative, they knew that they were in for at a day one.  They claim that their service is for everyone.  The student ratio is very manageable like an institution that has no need for the services.

    Everyone who has ever had a college degree knows what is like to just get a good written in the margin and wonder what it  means.  he gives students a great deal more guidance.  The Virtual-TA graders are trained to compile reports for the professors that apoint out overall problems was a specific student errors.

    A Western Canadian college or university is among the EduMetry’s dozen clients although Rajam declined to identify it.  The University of Houston director of the business law and ethics.  Lori Whisenant is a client as a re professors at the University of Northern Lowa College of Business Administration, West Hills Community College in Coalinga, Calf and George Washington.  The prices vary per course but the Virtual-TA estimates the program costs a university about the $12 per student per assignment.  The six assignments for the 20 students would cost $1,440.

    EduMetr has developed a checklist for each professor that begins a several weeks before a semester with a briefing on the course content.  The professors and expectations is also the course content.  The business school professor has a double standards.  For the last 30 years only the flight of blue collar jobs, as a business school professor what I find is there are double standards.  The moment it extends to knowledge work, immediately people get defensive.  The idea that can not mark in an English Composition 101 paper is ludicrous.

    Base to Raymond Ritchie, the race to the bottom economic.  Students are paying a big tuition fees for an education in a western country and they get marked by a call-in-center in India.  The idea is so cheap and nasty.  The members of the academic profession who seem to have the greatest difficulty are not as cognizant of what is going in the global economy.  The people who do not have a deep understanding of the world today.  Outsourcing becomes one of the greatest thing now.  It helps many people to make their life possible.
