Now students at universities in Uganda are anonymously rating their lecturers and administrative staff  performance which then is aggregated and made public.

The portal highlights strong and weak performers not to shame them but to motivate them to perform better at their jobs and will also make them accountable to the government, university authorities, students, parents, media, and the entire population. It also gives students power to govern their studies and avoid poor performance.

 

Notinmycountry.org tracks the staff’s attendance to duty, communication skills, accessibility, timeliness and fairness to students.

The comment part also gives them space to explain why they rate the staff so as long as they are not personal or in vulgar language and defamatory. However students ought to know the site as not as anonymous as they think because if one posts a defamatory comment or lie against the staff, they may face the law on their own. The site also requires students to sign up and provide an email address to cut fraud.
Musicians in Uganda have also joined students and recorded a song to end this menace. You can listen to the song here.
