Data-Driven Engagement of Millennial Students

Academic Dean’s Retreat, Fall 2013

Page 2: Ccsse & millennials

CCSSE Data

Spring 2013 Administration

Page 3: Ccsse & millennials

CCSSE (Community College Survey of Student Engagement) CCSSE defines engagement as:

“The amount of time and energy students invest in meaningful educational practices

“The institutional practices and student behaviors that are highly correlated with student learning and retention”

The survey instrument is designed to “capture student engagement as a measure of institutional quality”

Bi-annual distribution, 2013 sample size of 814 Source: Community College Survey of

Student Engagement

Page 4: Ccsse & millennials

CCSSE Structure Effectiveness of educational practices is

measured using five benchmarks, each consisting of a group of related questions: Active and Collaborative Learning Student Effort Academic Challenge Student-Faculty Interaction Support for Learners

Page 5: Ccsse & millennials

CCSSE Data Reporting Benchmark scores are reported using a mean

of the participant cohort*, with the average at 50

Decile scores are reported by dividing participating institutions into 10 groups, and allows Butler to compare itself to the highest-performing schools

Each institution is given a report of responses to individual questions, along with responses from similarly sized colleges and the cohort

*The 2013 cohort includes all schools participating in the 2011, 2012 and 2013 administrations

Page 6: Ccsse & millennials

Engaging Millennial Students

Page 12: Ccsse & millennials

Who are Millennial students? Defined as those born from the late 1970s –

early 1980s to 2000

Roughly 87% of our student population (34 and under)

“Technology reliant, image-driven, multitasking, open to change, confident, team oriented, information rich, impatient, adaptable.”

What do Millennials expect as consumers? Active participants and co-creators vs. passive

consumers Crowdsourcing

Millennials seek opinions and approval and expect it to be asked of them

Asked questions in class or contributed to class discussions

Made a class presentation Worked with other students on projects during

class Worked with classmates outside of class to

prepare class assignments Participated in a community-based project as

part of a regular course

Millennials are “information rich”

“Smartphones are like tutors that work 24/7” – Sprint

Knowledge transfer is no longer an exclusive product of higher education or vocational training

Knowledge and information must then be used to educate students in higher-level skills – thus satisfying the expectations of millennials to analyze, evaluate and co-create the consumer (student) experience

Bloom’s Taxonomy and CCSSEDuring the current school year, how much has your coursework at this college emphasized the following mental activities? Memorizing facts, ideas or methods from your courses

and readings so you can repeat them in pretty much the same form (Remembering)

Using information you have read or heard to apply a new skill (Applying)

Analyzing the basic elements of an idea, experience or theory (Analyzing)

Making judgments about the value or soundness of information, arguments or methods (Evaluating)

Synthesizing and organizing ideas, information or experiences in new ways (Creating)

Conclusions Millennials are not passive consumers, but

expect to be active participants and creators Millennials have knowledge, and it is no longer

a product but a tool to engage and teach higher thinking skills

While Butler is showing improvement in some measurements, we continue to fall behind “average” – we’re not improving quickly enough Directional improvements suggest that there are

faculty who are incorporating improved engagement practices Butler faculty continually request to learn from and

share best practices with peers

What should CCSSE data look like in 2015?
