Abstract Details
At the end of 2009 the ESRC published John MacInnes's report on the use of quantitative methods in the social science undergraduate curriculum. This session will begin with John presenting his findings. The panel will then respond with their views on how we can take undergraduate methods agenda forward. Though primarily the concern is with the "quantitative deficit", the context is how quantitative methods might be best taught within a pluralist mixed methods framework.
