Teaching Approaches to Visualizing Data
Have you discovered SAGE Research Methods Teaching?
SAGE Research Methods Teaching is an open-access site where lecturers who teach quantitative methods courses at an undergraduate and postgraduate level share their materials. As long as you honor the terms you can use the presentations, handouts, worksheets, and assignments for your own study, or with your students.
In this post we feature materials from the course: Data Visualisation in Political Psychology at the University of Sheffield from Dr. Alexandra Anderson. You can use one relevant piece, download the whole set and adapt for your course, or share this page with your students so they can choose the resources of interest.
