Download or read book Do College Student Surveys Have Any Validity? written by Stephen R. Porter and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 47 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the field of higher education, the majority of quantitative research focuses on college students. Given the limitations of institutional databases, surveys of college students have become one of the largest and most frequently used data sources. In addition, surveys of college students play an increasingly important role in evaluating college and university programs and policies. As such, having valid and reliable data about students is vital for both practitioners and scholars. Yet if survey questions are not measuring what individuals think they are, then their knowledge of college students will be flawed. In this paper, the author argues that the typical college student survey question has minimal validity, and that the field requires an ambitious research program to reestablish the foundation of quantitative research on students. The surveys lack validity because a) they assume that college students can easily report information about their behaviors and attitudes, when the standard model of human cognition and survey response clearly suggests they cannot, b) existing research using college students suggests they have problems correctly answering even simple questions about factual information, and c) much of the evidence that higher education scholars cite as evidence of validity and reliability actually demonstrates the opposite. The author chooses the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) for his critical examination of college student survey validity for several reasons. First, it is one of the most prominent surveys of student behavior and attitudes, and is widely used by researchers studying students, as well as institutions interested in assessment. Second, the NSSE survey serves as a model for surveys designed by other researchers and institutional assessment staff, precisely because of its prominence. Given its wide use by both practitioners and scholars, it is vital that individuals understand whether the NSSE can be considered a valid instrument. Finally, unlike many other college student surveys, NSSE staff and researchers using the NSSE (henceforth collectively referred to as NSSE researchers) have gone to significant efforts to validate the survey through a variety of studies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: college students in the United States evaluate their college library. The data in the report is based on a representative sample of more than 400 full time college students in the United States. Data is broken out by 16 criteria including gender, grade point average, major field of study, income level of students, type and size of college, and mean SAT acceptance score of colleges, among other variables. The report includes data on student satisfaction with electronic reserves, the range of databases and periodicals supplied, library supplied database use training, similar training on library workstations and software, reference services, photocopiers and printing services and other college library services. Just a few of the report¿s many conclusions are that: ¿Satisfaction with library electronic reserve was much greater among students from the higher income groups: more to 80% of students from homes with annual incomes of more than $150,000 per year said that they were either satisfied or greatly satisfied. ¿Students in the fine and performing arts seem the least satisfied with the provision of items on electronic reserve. Less than 40% of them expressed either satisfaction or great satisfaction. ¿In general, students seemed happy with the range of databases provided by their college library. Only 1.54% said that they would greatly dissatisfied and only 2.83% said that they were dissatisfied. Students who attend private college were someone more satisfied than students who attended public college. More than 73% of students attending private college said that they were either satisfied or greatly satisfied, while this was the case for a little more than 60% of public college students.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bridging the gap between higher education research and policy making was always a challenge, but the recent calls for more evidence-based policies have opened a window of unprecedented opportunity for researchers to bring more contributions to shaping the future of the European Higher Education Area (EHEA). Encouraged by the success of the 2011 first edition, Romania and Armenia have organised a 2nd edition of the Future of Higher Education – Bologna Process Researchers’ Conference (FOHE-BPRC) in November 2014, with the support of the Italian Presidency of the European Union and as part of the official EHEA agenda. Reuniting over 170 researchers from more than 30 countries, the event was a forum to debate the trends and challenges faced by higher education today and look at the future of European cooperation in higher education. The research volumes offer unique insights regarding the state of affairs of European higher education and research, as well as forward-looking policy proposals. More than 50 articles focus on essential themes in higher education: Internationalization of higher education; Financing and governance; Excellence and the diversification of missions; Teaching, learning and student engagement; Equity and the social dimension of higher education; Education, research and innovation; Quality assurance, The impacts of the Bologna Process on the EHEA and beyond and Evidence-based policies in higher education. "The Bologna process was launched at a time of great optimism about the future of the European project – to which, of course, the reform of higher education across the continent has made a major contribution. Today, for the present, that optimism has faded as economic troubles have accumulated in the Euro-zone, political tensions have been increased on issues such as immigration and armed conflict has broken out in Ukraine. There is clearly a risk that, against this troubled background, the Bologna process itself may falter. There are already signs that it has been downgraded in some countries with evidence of political withdrawal. All the more reason for the voice of higher education researchers to be heard. Since the first conference they have established themselves as powerful stakeholders in the development of the EHEA, who are helping to maintain the momentum of the Bologna process. Their pivotal role has been strengthened by the second Bucharest conference." Peter Scott, Institute of Education, London (General Rapporteur of the FOHE-BPRC first edition)

This book was released on 2011-06-28 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critics of student self-reported data claim that the accumulated corpus of research documenting student learning on the basis of survey responses stands on shaky ground. This volume argues that scholarship on proper use of student self-report data is woefully underdeveloped and contributing authors offer several important insights to assist IR practitioners in identifying potential limitations associated with self-report data. Volume editors Serge Herzog, director of institutional analysis at the University of Nevada, Reno, and Nicholas A. Bowman, postdoctoral research associate in the Center for Social Concerns at the University of Notre Dame, have assembled contributing authors who are leading scholars in the field of college student self-reports. Combined, the chapters draw on data from a mix of colleges and universities, capturing student growth at different stages of the undergraduate experience, and even beyond graduation. This is the 150th volume of the Jossey-Bass quarterly report series New Directions for Institutional Research. Always timely and comprehensive, New Directions for Institutional Research provides planners and administrators in all types of academic institutions with guidelines in such areas as resource coordination, information analysis, program evaluation, and institutional management.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beyond Free College outlines an audacious national agenda—consistent with, but far more comprehensive than, the current “free college” movement—that builds on the best of US higher education’s populist history such as the G.I. Bill and the community college transfer function. The authors align a wide constellation of higher education trends—online learning, prior learning assessment, competency-based learning, high school college-credit— with a rapidly shifting student transfer environment that privileges college credit as the pivotal educational catalyst to boost access and completion. The book’s agenda seeks greater productive investment in postsecondary education by privileging a single metric—lower-cost-per-degree-granted—as the animating driver of a transfer pathway that will fulfill the potential of its historical, progressive innovators. Beyond Free College’s goal is as simple as it is urgent: To galvanize higher education advocates in an effort to reorganize, reorient, and reignite the transfer function to serve the needs of a neotraditional student population that now constitutes the majority of college-goers in America; and in ways that advance completion, not just access to higher education.
