1 Collecting Assessment Data Lance C. Kennedy-Phillips, PhD Director, Student Life Research and Assessment The Ohio State University
2 OUR PURPOSE 2
3 Why are we here? How to collect assessment data Where to collect assessment Share ways in which we have used outside data to strengthen our work Share considerations to keep in mind when seeking and using external data
4 Poll Question: Time spent on assessment What percentage of your time (position description) is designated for assessment and research? A. Less than 20 B. Between 21 and 40 C. Between 41 and 60 D. Between 61 and 80 E. More than 80
5 Poll Question: Years in the field How many years have you been in the assessment and/or research field? A. Less than 1 year B. 1 2 years C. 3 5 years D. 6 8 years E. More than 8 years
6 The Assessment Loop 6
7 Assessment Loop Gather Evidence Interpret Evidence Adapted from: Maki, P.L. (2004). Assessing for Learning: Building a Sustainable Commitment Across the Institution. Sterling, VA: Stylus. Identify Outcomes Implement Change 7
8 Collecting Data Driven by a question Selection of method should align with your question and the type of information that you need. May need more than one option to fully understand an issue Qualitative and quantitative Not dichotomous, really a continuum 8
9 Collecting Data Use of institutional data Surveys Rubrics Interviews/Focus groups Document analysis Participant observation/observation Photo elicitation Journaling 9
10 Strengths and limitations Sample sizes Level of detail and depth versus breadth Direct versus indirect measures Numbers or stories Validity Reliability Credibility Transferability Dependability Confirmability 10
11 Qualitative Assessment 11
12 Qualitative Assessment Why Qualitative Assessment? Qualitative inquiry allows us to ask different types of questions that surveys alone might not be appropriate for. Important to remember that this data is just as good as qualitative data, it is just another kind of information. An accessible introduction to this type of assessment might allow for your offices to expand their thinking to more deeply explore student needs.
13 Qualitative Assessment For example A survey question might present a statement such as: Attending [event] enhanced my understanding of diversity. Then the respondent would fill in their answer on a scale (strongly agree to strongly disagree). However, a qualitative question might ask: How was your understanding of diversity affected by attending [event]?
14 Qualitative Assessment Expanding thinking: The purpose of exploring questions in a qualitative manner is to give us data that we might not be able to get from quantitative methods alone. Professionals Need to get past the initial hesitations with this type of research
15 Quantitative Assessment 15
16 If you torture numbers long enough they'll confess to anything. If you want a green suit turn on a green light. You don't fatten the pig by weighing it. Not everything that counts can be counted, and not everything that can be counted counts. Statistics are no substitute for judgment... and vice versa. People don't plan to fail; they fail to plan. The only people who really welcome change are wet babies. Change isn't about solving problems, its about living in a better future. Data don't speak to strangers. Without data, you're just another person with an opinion. Statistics are like bikinis. What they reveal is suggestive, but what they conceal is vital. Data don t lie people do!!!.

20 Mixed Methods Assessment 20
21 Mixed Methods Assessment Be careful there is a good way and a background to the design Yes, MMR does seem particularly applicable to SA work. Make sure you understand what you want in your outcomes look for balance
22 Creswell s strategies & models Sequential Explanatory I think it the most popular Can seem to make the most sense in SA Weight is given to quantitative side, qual is the support Particularly helpful when you want to know why something is the way it is Weakness is time and also ensuring that bias doesn t interfere in the second stage!
23 Sequential Exploratory Similar to previous, but weight changes More popular with qual researchers who need to build on a foundation Explores a phenomenon Evaluate dispersion of something among a population feelings about AIDS, develop an instrument that can be used across a population Requires a substantial amount of time to do well and must make decisions at several points about the most pertinent results.
24 Concurrent Triangulation The most familiar criticized because of the lack of integration Compares two sets of data (one qual, one quant) and then analyzes for corroboration or disconfirmation Can offset a particular weakness in one area Takes great effort to equally view the two sides and it s hard to resolve discrepancies EX. Look at your student data file what would be a good study to complement hard data?
25 Where are the data? 25
26 Institutional Data Questions to consider: What type of institutional data would strengthen your current work? What types of data are readily available on your campus? What other data exists, where is it housed, and who are the gatekeepers?
27 Types of institutional data Institutional Indicators Fact Books or Fact Files Enrollment Data Institutional Research Reports: Retention and Graduation Rates
28 Institutional Surveys Things to consider Psychometrics Instrument development Validity Reliability Conceptual Framework Sampling Administration Research Team Quality control IRB
29 National Surveys - Things to consider Psychometrics Cost Utility: Driving decision-making vs. good to know Benchmark group Should be remotely representative of your campus Consortia Nationally normed
30 External Data Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System Common Data Set Other sources National Consortium
31 Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS)
32 What is IPEDS? Integrated Post Secondary Education Data System Series of surveys sent out from the NCES (National Center for Education Statistics) Gathers information from colleges and universities across the country who participate in federal student aid programs Any institution that participate in federal student aid programs must publically report their data (over 6700 schools annually report) Colleges, universities, federal agencies have a shared interest and investment in this information
33 What data are available in IPEDS? Institutional characteristics Enrollment Student financial aid Degrees conferred Student persistence Human resources
34 Additional Resources College Navigator (college search) IPEDS Data Center (comparing institutional data, creating reports) IPEDS Table Library (national and state level data) IPEDS Resources (general resources, faq, etc) Association for Institutional Research (IPEDS Webinars) :
35 Common Dataset (CDS) Available on most IR websites Originally developed to provide a central source for publications to get institutional data Cleaner and simpler than IPEDS Lacks flexibility Consistent definition of terms
36 What data are available in the CDS? General Information Enrollment and Persistence Admissions data (Transfer and First-Year) Academic Offerings and Policies Student Life Annual Expenses Financial Aid Instructional Faculty and Class size Degrees conferred
37 Other Sources of Data Specialized Consortiums/Associations The Association of American Universities Data Exchange : Council of Independent Colleges (CIC): Accountability tools Voluntary System of Accountability (VSA) University and College Accountability Network (UCAN) State Coordinating Boards
