From LashleyB at easternct.edu Tue Sep 3 10:24:26 2013 From: LashleyB at easternct.edu (Lashley, Brian (Institutional Research)) Date: Tue, 3 Sep 2013 15:24:26 +0000 Subject: [COPLAC-IR] NSSE COPLAC consortium Message-ID: <8C0F5AA99075FD41BDAB2A075325D06A29E7623B@ECSUMB2.easternct.edu> Hi all, I'm serving as the coordinator of the NSSE COPLAC consortium for NSSE 2014. I've registered the consortium so everyone is free to sign up for it. A few things: Julie, I didn't see Geneseo on the list of institutions on the sign-up website. ??? COPLAC may have a new member soon, as I understand. Can anyone say who that will be? I could add them to the list of eligible institutions. Additional COPLAC questions are due 9/15. Right now I would suggest we stick with the previous list; attached is the document Lynn shared on Aug. 6, which is the current list. We have very little time between now and 9/15, plus if we make a lot of changes, there may be IRB issues and the NSSE staff will probably recommend edits. BUT I am open to any discussions; if anyone urgently wants to add and/or replace items, my job is to facilitate a discussion. We could have a conference call although we could probably work it out on this listserv. Let me know if you have something to lobby for. Everyone please chime in with your vote for either the current set of items or any additions/replacements you feel you need. The maximum # of additional questions is 20. We currently have 10. Any questions about anything, just let me know via email, listserv, or phone (contact info below). Thanks! Brian R.

This year, I will be serving as the COPLAC Data Profile Coordinator. Unfortunately, I was unable to see everyone in WVA at the meeting. I am in the midst of looking through notes that Lynn took at the meeting in West Virginia on the revisions that were suggested. If anyone else took notes during that meeting of the suggested revisions, could you please send them to me? I am hoping to develop a new template with the questions and revise the process for data collection to hopefully include an online submission. After I have prepared a new template, I will send it out to all of the institutions for a public comment/revision period. Thanks again to Lynn for serving as the Coordinator! I am sure that she will be a great resource as we continue this process. If you have any questions or ideas, feel free to let me know. I am looking forward to working with all of you!

Perhaps the association itself uses these responses in some way that was not enumerated. I'm going to tiptoe way out on a limb here, and someone please haul me back gently: KSC will certainly do what COPLAC decides in this matter, but I have to say that I haven't heard anything that suggests a big value-added to asking these questions, especially on an already-long survey in a time of declining response rates. What my institution gets most out of participating in the NSSE consortium could be had just as well by choosing each of the COPLAC participating institutions as a comparison group, especially if we all chose a common add-on module. Are we just doing these added questions because we've always done them? I ask these questions recognizing that I am very new to COPLAC, so maybe I've just not heard what everyone else already understands about this, and I'd love to hear it. Again, I emphasize that KSC will of course do what the group decides. I'm just trying to wrap my mind around why and how these questions are useful enough to ask all of our students to respond to them.

Advantages of Dropping the Additional Items * The new NSSE modules provide ways each school can address particular areas without having to force additional items on the whole group; dropping the COPLAC items would free up each institution to choose a module(s), whereas keeping the items would limit the number of modules they can add * Shortens the survey for any institution that feels the basic NSSE items are enough * Lack of vigorous response on this listserv suggests the items are not of vital importance Disadvantages of Dropping the Additional Items * This decision is being made somewhat last-minute; personally I would find it easier to drop the items if the conversation had started by mid-August. * One of the schools suggesting no additional items will not be in a COPLAC NSSE consortium till 2018 (If I understand their plan correctly to do NSSE on 3-year cycle with 2015 being next); I think it would be good to have the decision driven by 2014 participants.....No hard feelings Kristina! :-)) * Even if a school really only tracks one item, at least they will get that one item again this year and can start making plans for next year as far as modules & consortiums & new ways to get that item So folks.....does any of this resonate with you? If we continue to not have much discussion, I think that says the additional items are not very important and we should each just sign up for modules if we want to cover certain areas. Your call!

I have not seen any comments either offline or here on the listserv about the additional items. This indicates to me that the items are not important to people. If that is the case, then NSSE respondents would probably thank us to ditch them. It appears to me that it is time to go without the additional items and let everyone check out the NSSE modules if they want to focus on a particular area. Any objections? Brian R.

My agreement is more of a practical consideration than an explicit statement of satisfaction with the module as it stands. So far as I can tell, we do not have consensus about how to best proceed and are not likely to arrive at such a state in the time remaining before the deadline. In this case, the status quo may be the best alternative. Going forward, I recommend we have a discussion about the COPLAC module and the value it does and could offer our member institutions. I recognize that I am new and not privy to the rationale shaping this module's items, so I would appreciate it if anyone could share some of that with me and other new members. My own review of the module could not detect a unifying theme: I saw a mix of items estimating perceived faculty climate, social engagement and intent to complete, but nothing speaking to the liberal arts, or other COPLAC-specific themes. Perhaps this is intentional, and perhaps it could be re-examined. If we are to consider changes to this module, I think it is important to understand what we want out of it. Also, it would be a good idea to allow ourselves some time to reach a consensus on the goal and how best to achieve them. Perhaps we could set a time by which certain decision-related milestones could be completed.

Since we have less that 90 full-time faculty, even when opening it up to part-time faculty, our n is very low. It's been most useful for us to review the FSSE-NSSE combined report.

The former is well tied to some strategic initiatives that we've taken in the area of student success. The later is part of our institutional mission. However, since we signed up with the COPLAC group - we're only allowed to pick one module. This puts me into a nasty conundrum --- although I utilize the COPLAC comparison group - I don't really use the questions. So - my participation with COPLAC is going to limit my ability to ask important questions. Any thoughts/recommendations? I'm trying to remember if I can create a comparison group without being in the actual consortium (which locks me into the questions). [cid:image001.png at 01CEB90C.D80A68B0] Richard A.

A few years ago, we wanted an additional comparison group (more than the all, Carnegie class and the one one picked). I think for NSSE to conduct the additional analysis it was about a few hundred dollars (under $500, but I think it was closer to $300). The only real limitation to that was that there had to be a certain number of institution for them to run the analysis or you had to get permission to go below a certain number of institution. I haven't tried to register for the consortium yet, but hopefully this might help with your decisions. Elizabeth Elizabeth A. Clune-Kneuer, M.Ed.
