RateMyProfessors replacement?
NoBSWebDesign: I would be seriously interested in helping you take on this project. I have spent the last year and a half developing RateMyStudentRental.com for reviewing on- and off-campus rental housing and dorms.We have developed solutions to many of the problems you're contemplating (school email confirmation, conditional anonymity, etc.), so I think there might be a good opportunity to collaborate here.Just as we've developed a way to involve landlords and school administrators in the site without compromising the students' anonymity, I've thought of how much opportunity ratemyprofessors is missing out on. Their business model is horribly outdated, and there are so many other ways they could be leveraging their information. Imagine if the site partnered with education specialists to help the poorly-rated professors improve their lessons and teaching. And a comment I had often heard from my professors was that until the site gave them a chance to respond (much like we've done with landlords), they would never take it seriously.Not to mention the fact that there'd be an excellent opportunity to partner with schools (much like our School Partnership Program) and allow them to incorporate the ratings and website into their online registration process (or offer them an online registration process entirely).I could go on indefinitely, so I'll just stop here. You get the idea. Please let me know if you're interested and serious about pursuing this venture.
