wncc-mentor-scoring

This project computes a ranked mentor leaderboard for the WnCC Convenor Assignment 2026-27, Question 1. The system combines student progress, responsiveness, engagement, and mentee feedback into a single mentor score.

Output

The output contains:

• MentorID
• Name
• FinalScore
• Rank

Mentors are sorted in descending order of FinalScore.

Design Summary

The final mentor score is:

M(m) = 0.40P + 0.30R + 0.15E + 0.15F

Where:

• P is a weighted student progress ratio
• R is a Hill-function responsiveness score
• E is a per-mentee engagement score based on meetings,messages and code reviews.
• F is a Bayesian-smoothed feedback score with outlier down-weighting

More details and justification are provided in ideation.md file .

Important Note :

• All joins are done using MentorID and StudentID, not names, because names are duplicated in the dataset.
• Any student may have multiple mentors. In that case, each mentor receives full credit for that student’s progress because the dataset does not attribute individually.
• Mentors with no recorded interactions or feedback are assigned zero for unavailable components.
