High-Impact Practices

Abstract

During the 2019 administration of the Faculty Survey of Student Engagement (FSSE), new questions related to high impact practices were administered to faculty. Questions explored if faculty had or would participate in supervising, mentoring, or teaching undergraduate students in learning communities; if faculty supervised undergraduate students partaking in study abroad; and, if faculty had mentored or taught undergraduates completing a culminating senior experience (capstone, thesis, etc.). Faculty were also asked how important it was to them that an undergraduate student partake in these opportunities. This document outlines broad findings of the new high impact practice items as well as the items that can be found on the core survey.
