GROUPED DATA PREDICTIONS

MULTIPLE CORRELATIONS AT SINGLE INSTITUTION

Multiple correlations between measures of academic success and unit level student entering academic profiles at one institution tend to lead to correlations of low to moderate effect sizes (Bridgeman, McCamley-Jenkins, & Ervin, 2000)

Some reasons identified in the literature (Stumpf & Stanley, 2002)• Restriction of range inherent in any one institutions academic profile• The interdependence of academic profile variables from high school transcripts

and standardized tests• The disparate academic experience of students in one institution

Page 5: PACT FACTS FOR STUDENT SUCCESS NOVEMBER 6, 2012 Teaching & Learning Presentations George Hollich (PSY120) and Marcy Towns (CHEM115) will talk about their.

GROUPED DATA PREDICTIONS

SOLUTION BASED ON NATIONAL SAMPLE

Based on Stumpf and Stanley’s 2002 article use grouped data items readily available in two national data sets

• Integrated Post-Secondary Education Data System (IPEDS)– 25th and 75th percentile of SAT Scores

• US News and World Report National Colleges data set– Percentage of students in top ten percent of high school class

Criterion variable was six-year graduation rates pulled from IPEDS

Final data set consisted of 199 institutions

Multiple correlation for model R2 = 0.8025 distinguishing between graduation rates at different institutions

Page 6: PACT FACTS FOR STUDENT SUCCESS NOVEMBER 6, 2012 Teaching & Learning Presentations George Hollich (PSY120) and Marcy Towns (CHEM115) will talk about their.

GROUPED DATA PREDICTIONS

PURDUE RESULTS

Use national model at university level to predict success among different subgroups

• how well are individual colleges performing versus their predicted performance

Overall, Purdue outperforms its predicted rate• Most recent US News Report showed Purdue as a four percentage point

over performance as well

The majority of the colleges on the campus over perform as well• Wide range in performance (-6.75 to +38.88)

ACADEMIC ADVISINGASSESSMENT TEAM

The Goal of the Academic Advising Assessment Team

is to gain a better awareness and understanding of

the strengths and weaknesses of advising at Purdue. Ultimately, it is the team's hope that this process

will help improve advising on campus.

WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP?

• Academic success co-varies with engagement

• Academic success is subsequent to engagement

• Engagement promotes academic success

HOW DOES ENGAGEMENTPROMOTE ACADEMIC SUCCESS?

• Most engaged students are excellent to begin with

• Engagement imposes order & discipline• Getting involved caps out-of-class activity• Expectations are high• Special tutoring is provided• Mens sana in corpore sano• Some course credits are relatively easy

• Rate their entire educational experience at Purdue as good or excellent• Say they would attend Purdue again if they could start over
