Current Initiatives
National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE)
Law School Survey of Student Experience (LSSSE)
Student Evaluation of Teaching (SET) Task Force
Scholars at Risk (SAR)
The NSSE survey gathers information about factors and practices which have been positively associated with student learning and persistence.
The Law School Survey of Student Experience (LSSSE) helps us understand legal education by exploring the student experience. It has been administered by 196 law schools in the United States, Canada, and Australia since 2004.
The SET task force was created to examine current practice at the University of Windsor, look at best practices for SET at other universities, review the literature on SETs, and make recommendations for changing the current survey and process.
Scholars at Risk (SAR) is a global network based on the solidarity of academics worldwide. It is premised on the simple idea that “when any of us are at risk all of us are at risk.”
