Where can I learn more about understanding NSSE data?
Several helpful resources are available at NSSE’s Webinar Archives, especially “Getting Down to Basics: Working with your NSSE Data,” a two-hour introduction to NSSE, its data, and uses. You could also read the 14-page PDF “Using NSSE Data.” Also, if enough schools participate in the consortium, NSSE will conduct a webinar devoted to interpreting the CSWC survey results. The webinar will take place in October of 2009 (about three months after you will have received your data from NSSE) and be produced and hosted by Associate Directors of NSSE Bog Gonyea and Jillian Kinzie. This will be a free live webinar that you can participate in real time or view later.
