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. 606 $aHigher education 606 $aEducational policy 606 $aEducation and state 606 $aAssessment 606 $aHigher Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O36000 606 $aEducational Policy and Politics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O19000 606 $aAssessment, Testing and Evaluation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O33000 615 0$aHigher education. 615 0$aEducational policy. 615 0$aEducation and state. 615 0$aAssessment. 615 14$aHigher Education. 615 24$aEducational Policy and Politics. 615 24$aAssessment, Testing and Evaluation. 676 $a378.198 676 $a658.3008/095 702 $aCoates$b Hamish$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aMcCormick$b Alexander C$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484120703321 996 $aEngaging University Students$92852013 997 $aUNINA
