At the initiative of the student community, the Polytechnic University traditionally held the “Best Teacher through the Eyes of Students” competition from June 5 to July 12.
The competition has been held at the university since 2021 and this year it celebrated a small anniversary – five years. As usual, students nominate teachers for participation in the competition who, from their point of view, best meet such approved criteria as "Personal interest in the subject", "Openness to everything new", "Pedagogical excellence", "Culture of interaction with students", "Commitment to the traditions of the Polytechnic University", etc. However, this year, only graduating students who received their diplomas this year could vote for teachers. For each of the nine criteria of the competitive selection, the students had to nominate only one teacher.
"Our university is changing, and the rules for the "Best Teacher in the Eyes of Students" competition are changing along with it," explained SPbPU Vice-Rector for Educational Activities Lyudmila Pankova. "In this anniversary year for the competition, it was important for us to find out which teachers remain in the hearts of graduates leaving the university on their way to a new, big life."
Perhaps the most important change in the rules of the competition was that student voting was transferred to the Telegram bot "Digital Pelican" of the Trade Union of Students of SPbPU.
"We think it is important that our students have taken responsibility not only for developing the evaluation criteria for the competition, but also for its implementation," noted Elena Zima, Director of the Education Quality Center. "This significant step in improving the competition procedure will increase the university students' confidence in the competition results and their involvement, which will undoubtedly contribute to improving the overall culture of education quality at the Polytechnic."
494 Polytechnic graduates took part in the voting. The winners and prize winners were 10 teachers from seven institutes: GI, IBSiB, IKNK, IPMEiT, IFiM, IFKSiT, IE. All of them will receive cash prizes. The results of the competition are also taken into account in the rating of the faculty. The award ceremony for teachers will traditionally take place on Knowledge Day, September 1.
The winners of the competition in the nomination "Best of the Best" were:
Anton Pavlovich Shaban (IPMEiT); Sergey Aleksandrovich Vazhnov (IE); Elmira Alyarovna Nazarova (IPMEiT).
Full list of winners and prize winners of the competition posted on the website of the Center for Education Quality.
Congratulations to the winners! We wish you creative success, new discoveries and new victories!
