  1. Student Learning at Gallaudet University NSSE Results: Learning Strategies A Workshop Presented to Faculty and Staff for Professional Development Lindsay Buchko, Ph.D. & Leslie Rach, Ph.D. Fall, 2018

  2. Questions to consider when you’re reviewing your NSSE results…. • What NSSE items are of interest to you and your department? • Given the Gallaudet mission, what results do you want to see on NSSE? • Given your observations and understanding of Gallaudet students, what results do you expect to see? • Do these results resonate with your view of Gallaudet? With other data? • How well do you do in comparison to peers?

  3. NSSE EngagementIndicators Overview

  4. NSSE Engagement Indicators: Peer Comparisons First Year Students Seniors = Peers Higher-Order Learning Reflective & Integrative Learning Quantitative Reasoning Collaborative Learning Student-Faculty Interaction Effective Teaching Practices Supportive Environment Below Peers Learning Strategies Discussions with Diverse Others Quality of Interactions = Peers • Higher-Order Learning • Reflective & Integrative Learning • Quantitative Reasoning • Collaborative Learning • Student-Faculty Interaction • Effective Teaching Practices • Quality of Interactions Below Peers • Learning Strategies • Discussions with Diverse Others • Supportive Environment

  5. NSSE Engagement Indicator:Learning Strategies

  6. NSSE EngagementIndicators Overview

  7. NSSE Academic ChallengeLearning Strategies – First Year Students • During the current school year, about how often have you done the following? (% responding Very Often or Often) • Data findings for first year students • Gallaudet lower for all items in 2017 compared to Carnegie • Gallaudet 2017 lower for all items compared to Gallaudet 2014 • How and in what ways can Gallaudet improve first year students’ engagement in learning strategies?

  8. NSSE Academic ChallengeLearning Strategies – First Year Students (% responding Very Often or Often) Percent of students who responded OFTEN or VERY OFTEN

  9. NSSE Academic ChallengeLearning Strategies – Seniors Academic Challenge:Learning Strategies • During the current school year, about how often have you done the following? (% responding Very Often or Often) • Data findings for seniors • Gallaudet lower for all items compared to Carnegie both years • Gallaudet 2017 lower for all items compared to Gallaudet 2014 • How and in what ways can Gallaudet improve seniors’ engagement in learning strategies?

  11. Questions to consider…. • Given the Gallaudet mission, what results do you want to see on NSSE? • Given your observations and understanding of Gallaudet students, what results do you expect to see? • How and in what ways can Gallaudet improve students’ learning strategies? • What strategies can Gallaudet implement to improve students’ learning strategies?

  12. Continued Discussion…. Tuesday, August 21st at 9:00am to 10:30am Strategies for Key Indicators: Learning Strategies Room: MLCB 111

  13. Metacognitive Strategies • Using Metacognition to Promote Learning • Discuss some of the “before, during, and after” strategies Share one of your own specific to your class • Discuss (try to memorize for fun) some of the “assessment” strategies Share one you tried that just DID NOT work

  14. Learning Strategy Resources • “Ten Tips” • How We Learnby Benedict Carey • Chapter Notes for How We Learn

  15. Unhelpful Advice for Students • Find a distraction free zone, and make it your study place. • Develop a consistent study schedule and stick to it. • Forgetting is “bad”.

  16. Study Tips for Students (none requires MORE time, just smart time): Create varied and strengthened neural pathways • Use distributed practice – can you think of ways to “distribute” practice? • Break up practice/study time into 30-60 minute blocks • Test yourself on “storage” – each time you do, you strengthen pathway • Vary study intervals depending on how long you need the information • Sleep between study and exam; even a 1-1.5 hour nap is good (REM sleep)
