Comprehensive Insights into the Criteria of Student Performance in Various Educational Domains

Abstract:

This paper surveyed the literature on the criteria of student performance in various educational domains in order to establish the coherent taxonomy and figure out the gap on this pivotal research area. The significant search for articles focused on: 1) student evaluation; 2) education-related; and 3) criteria and domain. The three reliable databases are the Web of Science, ScienceDirect, and IEEE Xplore. These databases are sufficiently broad to cover education and technical literature. The set comprised 178 articles. The biggest group (170/178) included various evaluation criteria and domains. Most domains (84/170) covered criteria, such as performance and skills. Another group (8/178) utilized surveys and reviews to characterize the evaluation criteria for specific specializations. Since 2012, researchers have investigated the process of student evaluation in several domains. Regardless of class, the challenges that prohibited the full adoption of evaluation criteria were the focus of articles and recommended mitigations. Although research areas on student evaluation differed, the results were evenly pivotal. This paper affirms the existing research and provides the supplemental areas for future work.
