Often missing from campus conversations about use of student data are student voices about their preferences and needs. NASPA and New America engaged in a joint research effort to better understand student perceptions of data use within higher education. Insights from these discussions with students led to a set of recommendations for campus administrators about the uses of different types of data, the tools for collecting and sharing that data, the areas of data-related training for faculty and staff, and the framing and delivery of outreach messages informed by student data." Included in the report is "a set of 11 recommendations for how colleges can be more thoughtful in their use of data both during and after the COVID-19 pandemic." Recommendations include such things as: - "Limit the use of location data. - Stay our of students' social media. - Clearly communicate data policies. - Practice proctoring restraint. - Provide training for faculty and staff, and more."
