Carla Howery, Deputy Executive Officer, asa: This workshop will showcase strategies for introducing
data analysis in the lower division sociology curriculum. At present, the
“research sequence” occurs late in the major, and is taken even
later by students who are transfer students, who declare the major late, or who
postpone taking research courses. There are many reasons for offering research
experiences earlier in the curriculum — to give a more accurate and more
exciting picture about the field of sociology and the inquiry process; to
attract majors, especially quantitatively oriented students in other majors or
undecided about a major; to better connect lower and upper division courses,
especially the methods sequence; and to better prepare students to undertake
research-related positions upon graduation. The group will share ideas about
successful ways to introduce research experiences using available data sets and
east-to-use data analysis programs to meet the learning goals of basic courses.

to go on for the Ph.D., might find the MA a significant career investment. Some
Ph.D. students might also find the MA a better fit (not just a consolation
prize) in their career pursuits. The ASA is working with departments to develop
quality MA programs that focus on skills for applied work. There is no fee for
the workshop, but preregistration is preferred by sending your name and
affiliation to apap@asanet.org by April 1.
