Rating Metrics
The Rating Metrics listed in this section provide summary ratings for individual coders in important dimensions. These metrics can help you determine the specific types of value that each coder provides on the team, and when analyzed in context of results, these metrics can help you identify the overall strengths and weaknesses of the team. If you have a set of coders who rate strongly on a small set of Rating Metrics, and you do not have any coders who rate well on other Rating Metrics, then you may decide that you should strengthen the team in those areas, perhaps by increased focus, mentoring, or personnel changes.
It would be natural to have coders higher on some Rating Metrics and lower on others, and part of the purpose of these metrics is to categorize different types of strengths. This is done by summarizing specific Skills Metrics to create “composite” metrics. Many other Rating Metrics could be devised; these below are ones I have found particularly interesting or useful.
