The NDSU Bookstore is participating in Student Watch, a national research initiative that gauges college student attitudes and behaviors concerning course materials, online learning and technology. Student Watch is funded by the NACS Foundation, a subsidiary of the National Association of College Stores.

Students are encouraged to participate in the survey online. As an incentive, one respondent from NDSU will win $50 gift card to the campus store. Every student that completes the survey at participating schools will be entered to win the grand prize of $1,000.

“We are excited to take part in this national research initiative,” said Kim Anvinson, NDSU Bookstore associate director. “On a local level, the results of the survey will help our store better meet student needs and evaluate our performance.”

The study is being conducted on more than 60 campuses across the U.S. and Canada, with a focus on helping college stores better understand the evolution of course materials, how they can best support their students and how technology and online learning will play a role in the future of higher education. 

The survey is being conducted online through the NDSU Bookstore list-servs and social media links. For more information, contact Anvinson at kimberly.anvinson@ndsu.edu
