National Survey
of Student Engagement (NSSE)
Designed
by a panel of national experts on higher education, led by Peter
Ewell of the National
Center for Higher Education Management Systems, the survey is
administered by Indiana
University's Center for Survey Research and supported by The
Pew Charitable Trusts. The NSSE is cosponsored by The Carnegie
Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching and The Pew Forum on
Undergraduate Learning. While the University has conducted numerous
surveys of its own on student engagement, the NSSE provides useful
benchmarking information and comparative data from other institutions.
"The
National Study of Student Engagement (NSSE) is designed to obtain,
on an annual basis, information from scores of colleges and universities
nationwide about student participation in programs and activities
that institutions provide for their learning and personal development.
The results will provide an estimate of how undergraduates spend
their time and what they gain from attending college. Survey items
on The College Student Report represent empirically confirmed 'good
practices' in undergraduate education. That is, they reflect behaviors
by students and institutions that are associated with desired outcomes
of college.
Institutions will use their data to identify aspects of the undergraduate
experience inside and outside the classroom that can be improved
through changes in policies and practices more consistent with good
practices in undergraduate education. This information is also intended
for use by prospective college students, their parents, college
counselors, academic advisers, institutional research officers,
and researchers in learning more about how students spend their
time at different colleges and universities and what they gain from
their experiences." -- NSSE website, http://www.iub.edu/~nsse/html/quick_facts.htm
The
University has participated in NSSE in 2000, 2002 and 2005, and
has established a three-year schedule for future participation.
