Instructor of Record
Introduction to Social Statistics
I planned and taught Social Statistics, a required upper-division sociology course at UVa. Creating an active learning environment that integrated lecture and hands-on practice, I introduced students to the foundations of statistical analysis and challenged them to become more critical consumers of social research. In addition to two in-class exams, students completed independent research papers that analyzed data from the National Study of the Changing Workforce to answer a specific, individually developed research question. Course syllabus. (Summer 2015 Student Evaluations)
I also completed the Tomorrow’s Professor Today certificate program at the University of Virginia. As part of this program, I created a draft syllabus for an introductory class on the sociology of gender.
