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
HUDSON, ERIC R 3.96 4.00 24 3 100%
MIAO, JIANWEI 3.95 4.00 17 small sample 1 100%
PETTA, JASON R 3.90 3.91 17 small sample 1 94%

“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.
