Other Supporting Literature After reviewing approximately 2,500 studies on college students from the 1990s, in addition to the more than 2,600 studies from 1970 to 1990, Ernest Pascarella and Patrick Terenzini concluded student engagement is a central component of student learning. Pascarella, E. & Terenzini, P (2005). How college affects students: A third decade of research. San Francisco: Jossey-Bass Publishers. Presents institutional policies, programs, and practices that promote student success. Provides practical guidance on implementation of effective institutional practice in a variety of contexts.

Launched with grant from The Pew Charitable Trusts in 1999, supported by institutional participation fees since 2002. More than 1,500 baccalaureate-granting colleges and universities in the US and Canada have participated to date. Institution types, sizes, and locations represented in NSSE are largely representative of U.S. baccalaureate institutions. NSSE Background
Goals of NSSE Project • Focus conversations on undergraduate quality • Enhance institutional practice and improvement initiatives • Foster comparative and consortium activity • Provide systematic national data on “good educational practices”
NSSE Updated in 2013! • What we’ve learned… connect engagement data to indicators of success; student behaviors; institutional improvement is possible • Updating NSSE… same focus; new & refined measures; updated terminology • Emerging areas of interest – HIPs, quantitative reasoning, effective teaching, deep approaches, topical modules Read the Change magazine article May/June 2013
NSSE Survey Content Engagement in meaningful academic experiences Student Learning & Development Engagement in High Impact Practices Student Reactions to College Student Background Information
NSSE Engagement Indicators Engagement Indicators Meaningful Academic Engagement Themes Academic Challenge Learning Strategies Quantitative Reasoning Reflective & Integrative Learning Theme: Academic Challenge Learning with Peers Higher-Order Learning Experiences with Faculty Student – Faculty Interaction Campus Environment
Survey Administration • Census-administered or randomly sampled first-year & senior students • Spring administration • Multiple follow-ups to increase response rates • Additional Modules provide option to delve deeper into the student experience • Consortium participation enables addition of custom questions
A Commitment to Data Quality NSSE’s Psychometric Portfolio presents evidence of validity, reliability, and other indicators of data quality. It serves higher education leaders, researchers, and professionals who use NSSE. See the Psychometric Portfolio nsse.iub.edu/links/psychometric_portfolio
NSSE 2012 Respondents by Race, Ethnicity, and Nationality Totals may not sum to 100% due to rounding. U.S. percentages are unweighted and based on data from the 2011 IPEDS Institutional Characteristics and Enrollment File. IPEDS and NSSE categories for race and ethnicity differ. Percentages exclude students whose ethnicity was unknown or not provided.

Faculty Survey of Student Engagement College faculty survey that measures faculty members’ perceptions and expectations of students engagement in educational practices that are empirically linked with high level of learning and development (FSSE is pronounced “fessie”)
FSSE Survey Content • Faculty perceptions of how often their students engage in different activities • The importance faculty place on various areas of learning and development • The nature and frequency of interactions faculty have with students • How faculty members organize their time
FSSE 2013 Project Scope • In 2013, more than 18,000 faculty members from 146 institutions responded to the survey. • In 2013, 43% of the faculty contacted responded to the survey. • Response rates at individual institutions ranged from 11% to 88%. • The average institutional response rate was 49%.
FSSE Administration • Third-party administration in the spring-Institutions choose faculty to be surveyed • Faculty responses are kept anonymous • Administered online as a Web-only survey • The 2013 FSSE administration was the first year that institutions were able to add topical modules and consortium items to the end of the core FSSE instrument.
