Tuesday – March 13, 8:30 am - 9:15 am Title: Paint a Picture with Your Data by Using Tableau Software Presenter: Joshua Belliveau, Appalachian State University Facilitator: Geri Cochran, University of North Carolina School of the Arts Have you been looking for a quick and painless way to show and explore trends in your data? Do you long for the ability to take an existing report and tweak it so it tells the story that interests you? Or may-be you are just looking for an easier way to respond to administrative requests. Hear how one universi-ty used Tableau Software to quickly assemble a series of publically accessible, visual reports and dash-boards to create a portrait of their university and various colleges for a new provost. Key points to be discussed include: source data structure, data issues, technology requirements, security concerns, and examples of various visualizations.

NCAIR was founded in 1973 and has held an annual conference every year since.

Tuesday – March 13, 9:30 am - 10:15 am Title: Statistical Study of Possible Factors Impacting Student Course Evaluation Outcomes Presenter: Wendy Yan, North Carolina A&T State University Facilitator: Marcie Matejka, University of North Carolina at Charlotte This is a continuation of the last year’s study on possible factors impacting student course evaluation results. In the last year study, we examined the following five factors: (1) faculty classification, (2) course level, (3) course difficulty, (4) class period, and (5) teaching experience. In the current study, we will look at additional four factors, namely, (i) number of students participating in the course evaluation, (ii) course persistence rate, (iii) course pass rate, and (iv) number of students making positive and nega-tive comments about the faculty teaching. In this talk, we will present our preliminary findings and try to interpret our results.

Concurrent Sessions: 9:30 am - 10:15 am

Tuesday – March 13, 9:30 am - 10:15 am Title: Building a Retrospective Outcome Assessment Presenter: Belinda Brewster-Clémence, Forsyth Technical Community College Facilitator: Heather Langdon, Appalachian State University This presentation, geared towards anyone interested in how outcomes assessment might evolve, will discuss the collective effort taken by directors and coordinators to strengthen the relevance of the out-comes assessment process for the non-curriculum units. The key to the process was the enhancement of the assessment management software, which was modified to demonstrate more clearly how the various planning units closed the loop on outcomes assessment, then tied outcomes assessment with budgeting. In order that some of the past data not be lost, faculty and staff were given, and continue to receive, professional development opportunities in retrospective outcome building.

This work share establishes to participants how one me-dium size private institution implemented their QEP and GER SLO’s assessment by using MOODLE for student artifact evaluation. This process includes evaluating student-learning outcomes (SLO’s) through traditional as well as non-traditional student body. This work share explains the process: initial planning phase, implementation of assessment, and result analysis. Methodology for establishing which courses, sections, and sample size for use in evaluation will be included in the workshop.

Tuesday – March 13, 1:30 pm - 2:15 pm Title: When a Study is a Challenge from the Beginning…One Researcher’s Experience Presenter: Juliane Santiago, Mount Olive College Facilitator: Evelyn Tinsley, North Carolina A&T State University Because I was a faculty member in a school of information technology but completing my doctorate degree in higher education administration, my dissertation topic needed to combine both worlds. I chose a topic that, at the time of writing, had never been completed in higher education. As I pro-gressed through the stages of research, the topic created one challenge after another. This presenta-tion will outline the challenges I faced, including the development of an original research instrument, difficulty in actually collecting the data, and the analysis of data with a small sample size, and how I compensated for those challenges.

Concurrent Sessions: 1:30 pm - 2:15 pm

Tuesday – March 13, 1:30 pm - 2:15 pm Title: Improving the Online Evaluation Process and Response Rates Presenters: Elizabeth Snyder, Western Carolina University; Alison Joseph, Western Carolina University Facilitator: Philina Sarro, Methodist University As more and more colleges and universities turn to online course evaluations, the process of setting up and deploying surveys, releasing results, and the final response rate becomes more important. Finding the best way to do this can be a difficult process. With the guidance of the faculty senate, one university has been able to simplify the process and achieve a response rate that pleases the faculty. We will dis-cuss how this as done, from survey set-up to releasing the results.

Tuesday – March 13, 2:25 pm - 3:10 pm Title: Are commuter students really less engaged? An investigation of the effects of adult and commuter status on college student engagement Presenters: Sandra Nicks Baker, Belmont Abbey College; Karen Price, Belmont Abbey College; Mary Heuser, Belmont Abbey College Facilitator: Sara Gravitt, Wake Forest University Research indicates that commuter students engage in their collegiate experiences differently than stu-dents who reside on campus. However, a majority of these commuters are 24 years of age or older and therefore also considered adult learners. Thus, are the differences found in engagement due to the stu-dents’ status as commuters, or is it due to the fact that they are adults? In this presentation, the results of a study in which the effects of adult status and commuter status on different areas of collegiate en-gagement will be discussed. This session is appropriate for anyone interested in engagement of nontra-ditional students.

Presenters: Rob Springer, Elon University; Chris Ricciardi, SAS Facilitator: Bill Lefevers, Western Piedmont Community College Data mining/warehousing in IR is a given - whether it is a full blown highly technical system (i.e., dedi-cated staff members) or a more labor intensive process (a staff member who does this as well as other duties). We all want to do it better and faster. However, many schools cannot afford the mining/warehouse package our office’s want. SAS is partnering with Elon to develop an affordable web-portal, data mining light package that can be accessed by multiple users (i.e., Department Chairs, Deans, Assessment persons).

Tuesday – March 13, 3:25 pm - 4:10 pm Title: It’s not about pie when it comes to the facts… Presenter: David Onder, Western Carolina University; Alison Joseph, Western Carolina University Facilitator: Dana Dalton, Forsyth Technical Community College The quest for many institutional researchers is to present the data in the most effective ways possible. Using the years of research in graphic and data presentation, one institution revised the layout and graphic choices of it's fact book with the intent to make it easier to read and pack with more data inten-sive pages. A particular focus of this session will be on choosing the appropriate graph for the data. And please remember - pie is for eating, not for presenting.

A quantita-tive strategy of inquiry was employed using a survey approach. Self-reported self-concept data from a national study and academic performance data were analyzed. Results indicated that self-concept of mathematical ability seems to have an effect on academic performance in first year math courses; how-ever, further study is needed to examine the reasons and causes for this relationship.

Track—IR Seminar Room

Tuesday – March 13, 4:15 pm - 5:00 pm Title: Transform your Institutional Effectiveness and Assessment Efforts with Campus Labs Presenter: Andrew Lyle, Campus Labs Facilitator: Ivan Walker, Fayetteville State University The work of institutional research is complex and critical to the success of the institution. IR profession-als sometimes turn to a separate solution for all the processes they manage. Consequently, the data and documentation from each process is kept in silos, making it difficult to move from collecting data to connecting data. Come see how Campus Labs is offering a single platform for planning, program re-view, accreditation, and assessment (including course evaluations!). You’ll learn why more than 45 insti-tutions in North Carolina and more than 650 campuses across North America have chosen Campus Labs.
