ASU participates in National Student Survey of Engagement Feb. 8-March 30

Feb. 17, 2010 -- From Monday, Feb. 8 to Tuesday, March 30, ASU will be participating in the National Student Survey of Engagement (NSSE). Students are being contacted by NSSE and are encouraged to participate in the survey.

The National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) obtains, on an annual basis, information from hundreds of four-year colleges and universities nationwide about student participation in programs and activities that institutions provide for student learning and personal development. The results provide an estimate of how undergraduates spend their time and what they gain from attending college. 

Survey items on the National Survey of Student Engagement represent empirically confirmed "good practices" in undergraduate education that reflect behaviors by students and institutions that are associated with desired outcomes of college.

Arkansas State University-Jonesboro (ASUJ) students will have an opportunity to participate in the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) spring 2010. Students will be contacted by e-mail from the Indiana University Center for Postsecondary Research, beginning the first week in February and concluding the last week in March. 

The Office of Institutional Research, Planning, and Assessment asks faculty to  encourage ASUJ students to participate in this online survey if contacted.

 Information about the National Survey of Student Engagement can be found online. For questions, contact Dr. Kathryn Jones, director of Institutional Research, Planning, and Assessment, at (870) 972-3027.
