Standardized Institutional Assessment continued National Survey of Student Engagement The NSSE is an indirect measure of student learning based on five benchmarks of effective educational practice: Level of Academic Challenge, Active and Collaborative Learning, Student-Faculty Interaction, Enriching Educational Experiences and Supportive Campus Environment. Benchmark scores are calculated on a 100-point scale, but do not represent percentages. Comparisons with reference groups and trends over time are more informative than isolated scores. The reference groups with which Rockford College compares itself include a group of selected peers, colleges in the same Carnegie Classification, and all schools that participated in NSSE. The following information is reproduced from Rockford College’s NSSE 2010 Benchmark Comparisons Report and Multi-Year Benchmark Report. The Executive Snapshot summarizes benchmark results for Rockford College and its three comparison groups. A plus sign (+) indicates that Rockford College scored significantly higher than the respective comparison group (p < .05), a minus sign (–) indicates that Rockford College scored significantly lower than the comparison group, and a blank space indicates no significant different between Rockford College and the comparison group. After the summary table, benchmark comparisons and trend information are presented separately for each of the five benchmarks.

SOURCE: IPEDS Human Resources Survey NOTE: Percentages may not add to 100% due to rounding. *Data on graduate assistant gender not reported in 2006. ** In fall 2008, faculty and staff were re-surveyed for demographic information to accommodate new federal categories. In order to honor their rights to not respond, the number of unknowns increased from fall 2007. In previous years, most part-time staff members in the unknown category were adjunct faculty or graduate assistants. The re-survey process also created an opportunity for individuals to identify themselves as belonging to two or more racial / ethnic groups.
