AGP Executive Report
Last update: 2 hours agoStudent Engagement Data in Action: A new set of campus case studies shows how universities use NSSE to improve first-year support, advising, and high-impact practices—often by turning survey results into dashboards, department toolkits, and action plans (including work at Ohio University, UC Merced, and others). Belonging and Retention Focus: Illinois State University highlights sentiment analysis of student stories to understand what drives persistence, while multiple schools use NSSE to target gaps in supportive environments and student-faculty interaction. AI Meets Assessment: University at Buffalo and Delaware State University describe using AI tools to analyze open-ended responses and integrate AI into assessment workflows. Practical Implementation: Examples range from University of West Florida’s HIP participation barrier self-study to University of Rhode Island’s “Sandbox” sessions that help faculty translate data into changes.
