Methodology
251 institutions; 113,035 undergraduate responses Voluntary survey, opportunistic sample
$50 and $100 survey incentives (~1 in 2,000 chance of “winning”)
Sample of ~10,000 U.S.-based respondents Stratified, random sample to proportionally match
undergraduate demographics per IPEDS
1% margin of error
All non-U.S.-based responses included in report wherenoted

Connectivity and EngagementTechnology makes the connected age possible, butusing technology to help students feel more engaged intheir classes (or campus life) and connected with otherscan be challenging.

in their use of technology.

Connectivity and EngagementStudents are only moderatelyinterested in early-alert learner analytics and guidance aboutcourse offerings.
e.g., Netflix or Amazon.com “you
may also like” or “we recommend”
e.g., tutoring, skills-building
opportunities, etc.
