Hello All,
I have selected five undergraduate students and have formed a Data
Analysis Working Group. Using the National Survey of Family Growth dataset,
students will be learning SAS, data analysis and doing original research.
Students will be submitting their final projects to a regional sociology
conference.
Two things:
1) If anyone has ever done anything like this, could you please share your
experiences? Or if anyone knows of text/book/article -- any literature at
all -- that discusses exposing undergraduates to data analysis, I would be
very grateful.
2) If anyone can recommend some sociological journal articles utilizing
NSFG data that are more "undergraduate friendly", that would be great.
We start on Tuesday, so the sooner the better. :)
Happy Fall Semester! Elizabeth
