Step outside the test kit and into the real world of student stories. This session dives into how informal data, interviews, and observational insights can bring your evaluations to life. Participants will learn how to gather meaningful qualitative data, interpret it within a C-SEP framework, and use it to strengthen the defensibility and depth of evaluation reports. Expect practical tools, case examples, and a few “aha” moments as we connect the dots between what students do and what the data reveals.
