The Australian Centre for Student Equity and Success acknowledges Indigenous peoples across Australia as the Traditional Owners of the lands on which the nation’s campuses are situated. With a history spanning more than 60,000 years as the original educators, Indigenous peoples hold a unique place in our nation. We recognise the importance of their knowledge and culture, and reflect the principles of participation, equity, and cultural respect in our work. We pay our respects to Elders past, present, and future, and consider it an honour to learn from our Indigenous colleagues, partners, and friends.

You are reading: What’s new in the ACSES Interactive Data Tool?

We’ve been working on some upgrades and updates to our ACSES Interactive Data Tool.

Here is what’s new:

  • Increased accessibility: Improved colour and shape differentiation in legends and better usability on mobile devices.
  • Easier sharing: Share via link, email, or social media, and preserve filtering so that recipients will see the exact filtered graph and table.
  • Better downloading: Download graphs, data, or both in a zipped folder.
  • Participation and retention ratios: Explore participation and retention data in the right context with new ratio metrics.
  • Simplified institution comparisons: Add one or more comparison institutions to any graph for easier benchmarking.
  • Better equity group comparisons: Compare individual equity groups against “All Equity Students” or “Non-Equity Students”.
