This book provides university teachers, leaders and policymakers
with evidence on how researchers in several countries are
monitoring and improving student engagement-the extent to which
students are exposed to and participate in effective educational
practices. It captures insights from international implementations
of the National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE), developed in
the United States. In the last half decade NSSE has been adapted
and used in several other countries, producing the largest
international collaboration yet involving educationally relevant
data on students' engagement in higher education. Leaders of
established national collaborations draw on their experiences with
hundreds of institutions to contribute their insights. Framed by
their cultural and educational contexts, they discuss issues
concerning first-year learners, international students, part-time
and distance learners, as well as teaching and leadership in
support of student learning. Each chapter outlines strategies based
on national case studies and presents perspectives supported by
concrete examples of how these have played out in diverse settings.
The book suggests mechanisms that can be used by institutions,
ministries and quality agencies around the world.
