As demands for accountability increase, student affairs divisions are pressed to demonstrate learning outcomes and conduct assessment. This webinar offers student affairs professionals ways to explore their NSSE results to gain valuable information about student experiences and suggestions for corroborating these trends with existing institutional data.
Colleges and universities are experiencing dramatic increases in the enrollment of veterans due to the return of troops from Iraq and Afghanistan and the Post-9/11 Veterans Educational Assistance Act of 2008. Although many veterans choose to attend community colleges or career and technical programs, large numbers enroll at baccalaureate-granting institutions. Yet little is known about their learning experiences or how they view the campus climate. In 2010, approximately 11,000 self-identified student-veterans responded to the NSSE survey regarding their engagement experiences. This webinar presents the results of this survey and delves into the details of the student-veteran experience on our campuses. It also provides opportunities for participants to pose questions, provide feedback, or make observations as we discuss the results.
Ideas for promoting student participation in NSSE administration. The focus of the webinar will be on advertising campaigns and other creative approaches, including a number of specific examples, that can generate buzz on campus about the NSSE survey. Presenters discuss modes of capturing student attention and share approaches to include students in assessment conversations.
Many institutions offer learning communities for first year students. However, it is often difficult to determine how effective a learning community is at reaching its goals. This session will present and discuss ways to use BCSSE-NSSE data to help isolate the impacts of learning communities on first- year experiences.
In 2009, NSSE introduced new reports based on students' academic major. This webinar contains an overview of the four different types of NSSE reports by major field category including information about the creation of the reports as well as advice on using and interpreting the reports. Information will also be presented about how you can further customize your own reports such as with CIP codes or academic major grouping on your campus.
This webinar walks users through the contents of the NSSE Institutional Report. The session specifically includes a review of the various data reports and supporting materials contained in the Institutional Report, details concerning which data were used in the creation of particular reports and comparison groups, and general strategies for understanding and getting the most out of your Institutional Report.
Educational and institutional research that relies on survey methodology is often criticized for a lack of psychometric evidence to support use of the instrument. NSSE research analysts have developed a new framework for collecting and presenting evidence for reliability, validity, and reduction of bias. Various methods and results that demonstrate psychometric strengths and identify areas of improvement for NSSE will be presented.
This webinar gives representatives from past, current, and future FSSE participating institutions information about the administration process, data files and reporting, data analysis, and online FSSE resources. Webinar participants will learn about what to expect from FSSE and how to use their resulting data and findings to stimulate campus dialogue about improving undergraduate education.
Jillian Kinzie presents a "quick take," session (45 min or less!) focused on using NSSE results at the department and program level. Approaches to engaging departments in NSSE such as via the new Major Field, reports, use of "scalelets," a focus on department pedagogical concerns, and several successful department-level examples, will help generate ideas for involving your faculty in assessment and maximizing your use of NSSE results.
BCSSE asks entering first-year students about their high school academic experiences, as well as their academic expectations and attitudes regarding their first year of college. These data can be a catalyst for interesting and important discussions among faculty on how to effectively engage students. This session presents and discusses the types of data collected by BCSSE and how it can be used with faculty on your campus.
