Association Rule Analysis of Student Satisfaction Surveys for Teaching Quality Evaluation.

The quality of university teaching is essential for the success of students and the academic excellence of an educational institution. The purpose of this work is to provide a methodology based on the Association Rule technique using the Apriori algorithm to analyze the results obtained from the student evaluation process regarding their satisfaction with the teaching received. This methodology has been applied in programming courses of students of several courses both in the Computer Engineering and Health Engineering degrees at University of Seville, Spain. The proposed methodology can serve as a starting point for a self-improvement process that clearly identifies strengths and weaknesses.
