Getting to Know the Updated NSSE
Launched in 2013, the updated NSSE survey is built upon years of evidence-based testing, institutional feedback and recent advances in educational and survey research. Since 2013 additional changes have been made to the instrument and the topical modules. While survey changes range from minimal adjustments to entirely new content, the updates since then to the instrument maintains NSSE’s signature focus on diagnostic and actionable information related to effective educational practice.
We have archived all the Indiana University Northwest results prior to 2013 here, on a separate page, so we can focus this page more closely on the Updated NSSE. Here is a link to more information on the literature review and conceptual framework, or you can visit these more specific pages to learn more about Engagement Indicators, High-Impact Practices, and Topical Modules.
Indiana University's UIRR has developed Tableau NSSE reports recently for all the IU campuses, with all new visualizations of the data. Feel free to check it out.
