    <dc:title>Big Data Set from RateMyProfessor.com for Professors&apos; Teaching Evaluation</dc:title>
    <dc:publisher>Mendeley Data</dc:publisher>
    <dc:description>This dataset is shared by Dr. Jibo HE, founder of the USEE Eye Tracking Inc.  and professor of Tsinghua University. Contact me at hejibo@usee.tech if you need to get the full dataset in over 5G size. 

This is the dataset from RateMyProfessor.com for professors&apos; teaching evaluation. The dataset is provided in two format. The zip file contains many single .csv files, with each file for a single professor&apos;s webpage. The RateMyProfessor_Sample data.csv is the combined version with many professors&apos; information in a single csv file. We have crawled almost one million professors&apos; information. The total dataset is over 5. 

 The dataset crawled and extracted from RMP has 18 variables. This part briefly describes each variable that needs to be analyzed. 
	Professor name: name of the professor who is rated
	School name: university where the professor is currently teaching
	Department name: currently working there
	Local name: university’s locally known as
	State name: state which the university is located in
	Year since first review: the professor&apos;s teaching age, from the first student evaluation to the time when we did the analysis in year 2019. 
	Star rating: the star rating of the professor&apos;s overall quality, the point 3.5-5.0 is good, 2.5-3.4 is average and 1.0-2.4 is poor according to RMP’s official standard. This star rating is the average score given to professors by all student comments;
	Take again: percentage of students who want to choose this course again;
	Difficulty index: The difficulty level of a course. Point 1 is easiest, and point 5 is hardest. The difficulty index is the average score given to professors by all students;
	Tags: the tag students chose to describe a professor;
	Post date: the date when the student posted an evaluation of a course;
	Student star: each student gives a star rating to a professor;
	Student-rated difficulty: every student gives difficulty index to a professor;
	Attendance: whether a course is mandatory or not;
	For credit: whether students chose a course for credit (yes or no);
	Would take again: whether students would like to choose a course again (yes or no)
	Grade: student’s final score of a course, such as A+, A, A-, B+, B, B-, C+, C, C-, D+, D, D-, F, WD, INC, Not, Audit/No. “WD” is Drop/Withdrawal. “INC” means Incomplete. “Not” is Not sure yet, and “Audit/No” is Audit/No Grade.
