Abstract :
This paper introduces new metrics for course evaluation. It is also proposes a ranking algorithm that classifies courses based on the previous course evaluation metrics and suggests appropriate actions for course content improvement. The algorithm was tested and verified successfully in data originated from the eClass platform of TEI Kavala.
