Measurement of lecturer performance research in Indonesia: review of literature and future work
Abstract
The diverse approaches to defining lecturer performance in higher education create broad perspectives and conclusions regarding the things that influence lecturer performance. This study aims to understand the measurement approach and research variables related to lecturer performance. The literature review research refers to Scopus, Web of Science, and EBSCO sources, with the limitation of measuring lecturer performance in Tri Dharma per the regulations in Indonesia. The results show that there are three approaches to measuring lecturer performance: (1) tri dharma, (2) tri dharma and other additional tasks and (3) measurements with different methods according to the research objectives. Existing lecturer performance measurements can be developed to be more representative and applicable by referring to aspects, methods, and measurement media that have been carried out by previous researchers. One of them involves assessments from students and fellow lecturers, in addition to assessing from the lecturer’s perspective. Researchers can also utilise the results of literature reviews related to individual and organisational variables, which are antecedents of lecturer performance or mediating, moderating, and consequential variables related to lecturer performance, as further research opportunities.
