Grey bars are non-letter outcomes — P/NP, S/U, incompletes. They are excluded from the GPA entirely rather than scored, because counting a P as a 4.0 would be a fabrication.
By instructor
| Instructor | Predicted | Raw | n | Terms | A range |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| SHIMA, KENNETH MASAKI | 3.86 | 3.87 | 42 | 2 | 90% |
| SMITH, JORDAN ANTONY YAMAJI | 3.80 | 3.79 | 14 small sample | 1 | 79% |
“Predicted” is shrunk toward the course average, which is itself shrunk toward the department — so an instructor with a handful of students sits near the course mean rather than topping the list.
