From ctownsend at ucmerced.edu Tue Jul 10 15:48:12 2018 From: ctownsend at ucmerced.edu (Corinne Townsend) Date: Tue, 10 Jul 2018 15:48:12 -0700 Subject: [Analyst_community_of_practice] July 2018 Analyst Community of Practice Meeting Message-ID: Dear Analyst Community of Practice, For the July meeting, we are collaborating with the Campus Working Group on Assessment (CWGA) to hold a summit on Using and Analyzing Survey Data, which will feature the New Student Survey on July 20, from 1:30-3:00 PM in SSB 120 This summit will focus on: (1) using survey data to verify the underlying premise for a planned action or to correct misperceptions (2) using longitudinal data to monitor change, and (3) using comparative data to look at different student populations. The purpose of this meeting is to review the fall 2017 NSS data through these three lenses, identify data-informed observations and insights, and identify research questions for further analysis. The intended outcomes of the summit are as follows: - Participants will learn strategies to support assessment and decision-making with data collected in the New Student Survey and identify data relevant to their areas to work - Participants will identify specific research questions for further analysis at the campus level The agenda is attached below. Feel free to share the invitation to colleagues who might benefit from attending a session on using and analyzing survey data, and/or folks who have an interest in data from the New Student Survey. We hope to see you on July 20!
