FSSE Feature:
New Resources for Institutional Researchers and Assessment Officers
In the past year, FSSE has rolled out several new resources to assist institutional users in presenting their survey findings to campus audiences. Whether you are looking for ways to present your data to different campus audiences, seeking examples of how other institutions are using their FSSE findings, deciding which findings to highlight, or simply questioning how to get started with your FSSE results, we have resources to help!
"Working with FSSE and NSSE Findings: A Facilitator's Guide" offers tips on using your FSSE results to facilitate workshops, presentations, and discussions about student engagement practices with others on campus. It provides preparation notes for facilitators, outlines for addressing topics related to FSSE and NSSE data, and exercises and worksheets that that you may use to help others understand the utility of the survey data to your specific campus environment.
The FSSE Selected Results are illustrated findings from past FSSE administrations, and downloadable syntax that you may use to easily reproduce the featured illustrations using your institutional data. New selected results from FSSE 2009 were recently added to this section of our Web site.
"Using FSSE Data" is designed to help FSSE users think through the process of how your survey results may be best used and with which audiences they may be most effective. This document provides helpful hints on working with your FSSE results and presenting findings to various campus audiences, examples of how other institutions are using their FSSE results, and a guide to all the other resources FSSE provides.
These and other resources may be found in the "Resources" page underneath the FSSE tab to the left. If you would like to share how your institution uses FSSE results and have your institution's story featured on the FSSE Web site, or if you need additional information regarding any of the resources mentioned above, please contact us at fsse@indiana.edu.
