1 Frequency Distributions August 2011

2 Interpreting the Frequency Distributions Report Typical-Student Survey Option The typical-student option asks faculty members to respond to questions based on the typical first-year student or senior they have taught during the current academic year. This option is valuable for institutions that desire to have faculty estimate first-year or senior levels of engagement across all their courses, rather than one particular course. Sample The Frequency Distributions report is based on information from all faculty respondents at your institution who reported that they teach mostly first-year or senior students. who reported teaching mostly other types of students or who did not report the class level of students taught are not included in this report. Survey Items The items from the FSSE typical-student survey option appear in the left column in the same order and wording as they appear on the instrument. Class Level Frequency distributions are reported separately for faculty who teach mostly first-year students and those who teach mostly seniors. Variable Names The name of each variable appears in the first column for easy reference to your data file and the FSSE-NSSE Combined Report. How important is it to you that undergraduates at your institution do the following? FSSE 2011 Frequency Distributions ib ti NSSEville State University a.
