| The National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), headquartered at IU Bloomington, along with the American Association for Higher Education, Lumina Foundation for Education and the Center of inquiry in the Liberal Arts at Wabash College, are launching a project to help colleges and university find, document and share programs, policies and practices that successfully engage their students in productive learning activities and lead to strong graduation rates.
During the past three years, 617 four-year colleges and universities in 49 states have used the NSSE survey to get feedback from their students. NSSE’s results represent more than half of the nation’s full-time undergraduate students at four-year campuses. The new project, titled “Documenting Effective Educational Practices,” will examine the everyday workings of high performing colleges and universities to learn what they do to promote student success. http://newsinfo.iu.edu/news/page/normal/487.html
