| Abstract | This study explored students' evaluations of their introductory physics professors posted on RateMyProfessors.com. Data included 1,521 student written comments along with numerical ratings. Student-written comments were sorted into three groups based on their numerical ratings: good, average, and poor quality. Using a text-mining technique, categories representing themes from student comments were developed, and category frequencies were investigated to compare student comments across the three groups. A decision tree model was also used to see what categories were significantly attributed to the different groups. The results showed that students were sensitive to professors' classroom practices and a coherence between requirements and lectures. Also, professors' positive attitudes toward students were in play as an important attribute for more positive evaluations. (As Provided). |
