Export Evaluation & Response Rate Data Files

Data Export Overview

IASystem provides several different export data files to meet a variety of purposes. Files are written as semi-colon delimited ascii records with field names in the first row of the file.

  • Evaluation
    • Evaluation Parameters files provide information about the evaluations themselves. Parameters are used to identify and possibly classify evaluations of particular interest. Most evaluations have one record in the parameters file, but team-taught or cross-listed courses may have multiple records.
    • Medians, Means and Deciles files report student ratings of courses. They contain one record per evaluation and support analyses for which evaluation is the unit of analysis. An evaluation is defined as the set of student ratings relating to a particular combination (defined by the institution) of course, section(s), instructor(s) and term.
  • Item datafiles contain one record per item per evaluation and support analyses for which item is the unit of analysis. Item data are used to examine the technical functioning (reliability) of the items and the evaluation forms.
  • Questionnaires datafiles contain one record per student per evaluation and support analyses for which student is the unit of analysis. A questionnaire is an evaluation form filled out by an individual student.
