INSTITUTIONAL RESEARCH AND ASSESSMENT
The IRA employs a variety different assessment tools to gather information about stakeholder perceptions, diversity, equity, student and alumni experiences, and end-of-program reviews. The following examples are assessment tools implemented by TESC to learn about diversity, equity, and student affairs at the Evergreen State College.
Student Affairs Indicators from Institutional Research and Assessment
This particular assessment is composed of information obtained from several different tools. Each of these tools is used to gather specialized data about student thoughts and opinions about their experiences at the school. The tools used in this assessment are:
♦ The Evergreen Student Experience Survey:
http://evergreen.edu/institutionalresearch/studentsurveys
The Evergreen Student Experience Survey provides an opportunity to assess students’ experiences at Evergreen and provides information about students’ satisfaction with Evergreen's learning environment, learning growth in various skill areas, goals for their college experience, level of confidence, use of campus resources, and participation in community activities.
♦ National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE)
The NSSE assesses student engagement in educational practices that are associated with high levels of learning and development
♦ The Evergreen One‐Year Alumni Survey
The Evergreen One‐year Alumni Survey assesses alumni perspectives of their experience at Evergreen one year after graduation. The survey measures alumni satisfaction with their educational experiences and campus resources; gathers employment, graduate school, and volunteerism post‐graduation; and assesses how well they feel Evergreen contributed to their personal growth and preparation for the work force and further study.
